His own words at 55 seconds. Typically the people who say "I'll only take power temporarily" never give it back.

That's exactly what I did too. I was like "they've gotta be exaggerating." Nope, not at all. Ffs

As an American, I would also say the most loud and relentless proclaimers about our democracy are also our right wing voters. Nationalism is a hell of a drug. I wouldn't necessarily say it's only our politicians. I went to school with people who unironically would start USA chants.

Though I'm not saying we don't have the same thing on the left. I think more of America's left recognizes how shitty our county actually is for regular people.

I know I rambled a bit there... Anyway, I agree with your point entirely about the loudest they rant about democracy, the less there actually is.

We have had enough of the system. But it's a big country. You can't just walk down the street to the White House to end up getting curb stomped by militarized police. While your family at home starves because you stopped working for a day.

Also with voting, one party is sending a fascist religious cult. If one person tries to do a third party vote, that takes away a vote from the other main party that has the highest odds of winning. It would have to be everyone is doing it all at the same time. But it would be much more likely that the fascist wins while everyone realigns. Do you really want to take that chance?

It feels like they are trying to radicalize me.

I'm confident they will be completely unbiased in their decision. /s

 

Imagine being such a persecuted group in America that you get to blast spam mail to everyone in your community in the name of religion with no repercussions.
