Remember her Bush statement?
dont know much about her but I know she says stupid shit all the time?
Stefan, you do realize that the house was created to be representative of population right?
The Senate was meant to representative of the map
its part of the checks and balances. can't have 10% of the map running things but you can't have less than half the population run things either
Exactly. The more I live the smarter I realize the founding fathers were. I used to think the electoral college was the big gay, but after Daddy Trumpy won off the EC I understood how pure democracy with no republican structures sucks. People complain when a president wins in spite of losing the pop vote, but I see now that an EC pop vote disagreement is a narrow defense of the vulnerable fly over states.
The Founding Fathers realized that its bad when the politics of a Country are made by a couple of population centres...
At the time there were probably a couple of citiys that had more people than the rest of America.
Exactly. Big Bear Owen Benjamin distills this in a way that I quite like. "Democracy is 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner".
Democratic Republics are <:PogChamp:388980101728960535>, pure Democracies are <:DansGame:413020438877437953>
Thats a classic argument.
Politicians as a class can be effectively become.obsolete if you follow 34 simple rules.
Honestly, we could probably do away with EC, if we restricted voting to landowners...🤔
I dare the Dem House to spend the next 2 years writing a constitutional amendment to abolish the EC, lol.
pOPuLaR VoTE iS GooD.
Well, I disagree...
I'm for counting every vote of a 2Million city as half or 1/4 of one living in the woods.
That was sarcasm
hence the way it was spelled
I know it comes up every election, but what are your thoughts on the odds of someone uncovering real, serious election fraud this year?
it's too easy to hide it.
block observers, "find" some ballots, replace others with fakes. all ballots are anonymous so there's no way to know.
whoops! found 10k absentee ballots in the back of this unmarked van.
with a conspiracy, the larger the number of people that necessarily have to be involved the harder it is to maintain. there's more people, so there's more chance of something leaking, or someone having a change of conscious.
but when you're dealing with utopians, it's less likely that someone is going to have a change of conscious. the people committing election fraud believe they are saving the world.
there have been slip-ups, like <https://twitter.com/Tim_Canova/status/1060575611868114944> but no one is going to come forward and fess up. and without that it's not possible to prove anything beyond a reasonable doubt.
I guess the only interesting thing this time around is that all the big mainstream republicans are openly calling it fraud.
That's a game of chicken and I don't really know who's going to choke.
so tim did a video about age bullshit
i have a biggo problem about this as a progressive bullshit liberaly gayfag because this whole idea only works to keep people more judgemental about ages if one was to say "lol just change your age"
your age isn't anything that should be changeable, it isn't like the transgender discussion at all
@Ottobon And where does it deviate? (minus scientist approval)
If you ask me, age is something that you can't actually find in your DNA. You can look at a body and determine its level of development or decay, but it doesn't tell you age. Every person is different at the rate of change to their bodies, and how often do people look different than their age? Or have problems that are only typical of someone older. Or are in better shape that is usually possible for someone as old as they are?
On top of that, people have different levels of "mental" age, usually we use this to refer to maturity. But there are teenagers who sometimes speak wisdoms you;d only expect in someone much older, or full on adults who behave like children
Age really is an arbitrary number
in morning i will reply meaningfully
but its not nearly same question
neither do you seem to comprehend why people who be attracted to either version of disconnect with biological reality, or its significance
