Typical hexbear user

Either you’re creating anti democratic propaganda or you’re consuming and regurgitating it. Fuck off.

Nah I think the people who constantly make the most barbaric decisions or excuse why they can't revert them are the ones being anti-democratic.

Wouldn't those with the power given to them by the population who then act against what those voters want be the anti-democratic ones?

I struggle to see how potential voters pointing out they never get what they ask for is the reason for any of our problems today.

Typical hexbear user observing the world. Maybe next time if you vote hard enough it'll finally work

Ohh yeah, you always get more evil, but it is earnestly less of it.

You prefer +1 evil or +10 evil? That's our system of government. Push for voting reforms, which neither evil likes, but you are more likely to get with +1 evil then +10.

Okay then clearly dismantling the system of government that only produces evil ourcomes is the place to start

Typical hexbear! Suggesting we should address systemic issues to improve society somewhat. Don't you see +1 evil is the best we can ever have? I am very intelligent and an Adult in the Room(tm)

hmmm yeah sounds like the entire system of government is dogshit and needs to go

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It does sound like that, but have you considered vote blue no matter who?

Hey, uh, I think this thing is broken

Nah, it's working as intended, if you look back here both levers are pressing this button that says 'Barbarism'

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

This is the thing they can't admit. That the system isn't broken. It works exactly how its meant to, for the people ots meant to wirk for.

For libs its always some magic bullet, some minor reform, one reversal of one policy and it'll all be fixed. "The problem is 'first past the poll' we need 'ranked choice' then elections will work." For example
