Weird how voting always seems to work for the right wing
Maybe voting would actually work if…you know…you actually voted
My mom said that you gotta vote if you want to complain and I do like to complain.
Maybe people would vote more if the counter offer wasn't also fascism
Once fascists win power democratically, they have never been removed democratically. Not once. Ever.
@falseWhite what's crazy is that hitler wasn't even voted in- he was appointed, which means that fascists don't even PRETEND to play by the rules of democracy
He was appointed by the elected government
We forgetting when Americans voted out Trump now?
We forgetting that the person who replaced him was also a fascist and then Trump got reelected anyway now?
From another commenter: https://cmarmitage.substack.com/p/i-researched-every-attempt-to-stop
Trump wasn't full fascist yet in his first term. He was just getting the taste of that power.
You could also believe the rumours that he only won the second time due to rigging and voter fraud. Something he constantly kept accusing the dems of. And we know how much he projects.
I get it but do you actually think we won’t have elections in 2028 and that a democrat can’t win the presidency again?
We just had some elections and democrats absolutely destroyed in almost all of them
I know it’s mostly doom out there but this is absolutely not a full fascist takeover
Your daily reminder that American liberals are also sadistic fascists
My bet is that this is all a propaganda campaign.
Not once ever? Not even when Trump lost the 2020 election despite the jan6 raid on the capitol?
Which just resulted in a different fascist being elected, and then Trump got reelected anyway?
The government wasn't anywhere near as fascist then as it is now.
So you're saying "No TRUE fascist", huh?
Americans: "Our FPTP two-party electoral college system doesn't work. Clearly democracy doesn't work."
Meanwhile in Canada we just voted for dental care. Europeans just voted to take on big tech corporations.
I think the problem is years of "it's not my job to educate you, sweetie". Turns out it is our job to educate them. Because they vote.
Don't you have SS veterans to be giving standing ovations too right now?
Remember when Canada voted to replace First-past-the-post voting?
The right have gerrymandered and bet million bucks rigged the voting machines too. Always projection with them. Look at Mitch McConnell and Lindsay Graham voting districts. I read years ago that they have it rigged that they could never lose even if people voted.
Those guys are senators. There are no voting districts for Senate elections. They are state-wide popular votes.
Voting districts are relevant at the federal level for presidential and House of Representatives races.
