some republicans are good people in the same way some cops are good cops.

Somehow less awkward than if he got it right...

[-] Narrrz@kbin.social 1 points 8 months ago

you got the last letter of the C-word right, but it's one letter too short.

All Republicans Are Chops

[-] SuckMyWang@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

Good analogy. Imagine if there were no good cops

unfortunately, I entirely lack imagination. happily, however, this is not a case where one is needed.

Yeah but they are stupid. Its the same in my country. People are simply sheep so they vote for the person who they see the most in ads and thats the guy who distroyed our economy and does racist and homophobic stuff...

The good ones are usually very misguided people, oblivious to what they are really up to in my experience.

How can something so vague and superfluous be reality shattering?

It's hilariously ridiculous to know that those who downvoted this post can not accept such a simple reality.

It is odd to observe. It’s like the idea of being right or wrong has zero nuance to these people and the only viewpoint is being 100% right about everything but then again, may be I’m wrong about that

Every person who think that their vote (in a representative democracy) matters, is a victim of the illusion of universal participation in the use of institutional coercion, that is, the state.

However, what makes the state different from other coercive entities, such as organized crime groups, is that it enjoys some form of popular legitimacy. In other words, in addition to enslaving its inhabitants physically, it needs to secure their mental servitude as well.
