They keep calling oligarchy a democracy.

Additionally, I will be voting Kamela, however I will continue to remind everyone that we don't actually vote for president. There's no need to advertise anything to us. We will all pretend voting for president as we are expected to.

I suggest that the campaigns find and focus on electors...you know, the actual real people who choose who our president and leader of the free world will be. They, out of their own freewill, and not due to our suggestive votes, will choose whoever paid them more. So purchase your presidential seat wisely!

As for the rest of us, I really do hope Kamela wins! I know my vote is 1000% completely just a suggestion for some asshole to vote Kamela. But I hope she wins. I also hope the Republican party keeps Trump around for a few more elections just to watch him grow....chi chi chi Chia! If he makes it to two more election years l'd be impressed and probably will feel sad for whoever has to push that sack of shit around on a wheelchair in the next few years.

Why do you guys trust these people that just are using things out of context?

I dunno, guys.

I feel like we pretty much nailed the ending of Democracy when the Democrats argued in court that they're a private corporation and don't have to honor primaries.

What we have isn't a democracy.

Eh... While Hilary and her shills definitely rigged that primary, it took her 8 solid years to get her people into all the positions of power throughout the DNC and state Dem parties so they could shove her down our throats... I don't think her minion infrastructure is still in place like it was then... And I think it was more her controlling the party that made the party undemocratic, than about the party itself actually being fully undemocratic.

I don't know that I agree.

These DNC insiders, more than most, have had a front-row seat for the very public cognitive decline that Joe Biden has displayed over the last 2-3 years, and they crowned him anyway. If he hadn't had that very public break on national television, things would be very different now. They couldn't stage manage his brain melting.

I think they want a useful idiot president they can maneuver around the board every bit as much as the Trump's handlers do.

By DC insiders do you mean Clinton people?

Some of the responses to your comment are some of the most braindead, conversation killing, stereotypically lib bullshit I've seen in awhile.

[-] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world -5 points 5 months ago

True. These are the people who vote for whoever MSNBC tells them to and have zero introspection on their own personal politics.

What I find to be bizarre as an outsider is the attitude in United States politics that there are only two parties and since one is clearly pretty evil, the other one must the good party and therefore can't be criticized. All this "fuck your 'but both sides' hurdy hurrrrr" shite the American liberals spew.

Do they not realize both parties are awful? One is quite a bit less awful, but it's still awful compared to any parties actually left of center or if just looked at objectively. If the United States had a third party who adhered to the politics of Bernie Sanders, there would be no question it would be superior to the Democrats. But they don't, so many people consider the Democrats beyond reproach.

What is wrong with all of them?

[-] btaf45@lemmy.world 0 points 5 months ago

adhered to the politics of Bernie Sanders,

Would that be the same Bernie Sanders that endorses the Dem candidate and is disgusted by your attempts to fool people into helping billionaires get gigantic GOP tax cuts and overthrow democracy?
