3 options. assholes who used to be a party based on liberation and progress but now hate women and love making their cronies money. assholes who used to be a party based on the ability to seat niggers in a different section but now don't hate women quite so much vocally and just want to get money for them and their cronies. smoke weed every day.

Don't blame people for not voting for the human garbage that the Democratic Party considers to be candidates. The great majority of the races held yesterday had no candidates on the ballot that represented anyone outside of the 1%. People shouldn't vote for this bullshit. gently caress the Democratic Party.

What if you stopped making excuses for what an insufferable prick you are and just got up, changed out of your sweatpants, and went outside to do the one single civic thing you're probably legally qualified to do for once in your lovely life?

I'm 36 but for the purposes of this topic I will pretend to be 34. I didn't vote yesterday and I'm mad about how the country functions. I did not vote because I consider the system illegitimate. I get one vote, and my boss gets one vote. I educate myself on the issues, seeking out a wide variety of perspectives and trying to understand why people who disagree with me believe the way they do. My boss posts in the comments of FoxNews.com and swaps SDTH about blacks and liberals on Facebook. Our votes count the same. In a society where a media corporation can fight a court case to lie on the air and call it "news" and win, where ignorance is considered a legitimate point of view, representative democracy cannot work. Therefore, I don't vote. Also, because the is GBS and not D&D, goku or some poo poo, I'm gonna go buy a horse mask off Amazon.

Google "FL-13 special election" to see a good recent example of the Democratic Party intentionally losing a winnable race. This state has 500k more registered Democrats than Republicans, but countless races are uncontested by Democrats. It's fixed.

Cubey posted:i know you're being ironic, but yes. the democrats are not going to change if they keep winning seats despite ignoring their voter base. i wanted them to lose the senate and i want them to lose everything in 2016 unless they get their act together because that party is a farce. You know who elected politicians really listen to? People who don't vote. Because it's the people who don't vote who hold all the power. Because they could vote, at any moment, for anyone! But they won't, because if they ever did vote, they'd lose all their power.

A little this, a little that, and huge swath of people think Obama is ruining the country, so the most logical solution is to oust every Dem you can since Obama is one of them.

the reason republicans always win is because when you get old time goes really fast so instead of two years between elections it seems like about a week, so that when old people vote it is like tuning in to a new episode of a weekly tv show for everyone else. at normal time speeds people lose interest in the plot and who gets voted off island or whatever
