And no, the argument that the electoral college somehow prevents a tyranny of the majority onto the minority is simply ludicrous. Literally every democracy works that way.
the US is a republic not a democracy
A republic is a type of democracy.
incorrect
constitutional republic
Arguing over those semantics is fucking stupid.
they're different forms of government
Uh, how do you think we get our representatives?
**By voting**
correct but we don't do things by popular vote
Uh yes we do.
no we don't
Yes we do.
no we don't
the popular vote has never and will never matter in US elections
"muh presidential election" is a vast minority in the type of voting that happens in the US
How the fuck do you think your representatives and senators are chosen?
How do you think those same senators and representatives vote for policies in the house?
How do you think the SCOTUS decides if a policy is constitutional or not?
when it comes to US presidential elections it's the EC
it used to be the same for state elections
until some idiot changed it
which allows places like NYC and NOVA to outvote the rest of the state combined
uh what?
NOVA (northern VA) has more population than the rest of the state
same with NYC
and alot of other cities
Ok?
for example NYC alone could overrule entire states because of it's population
if we did it by popular vote than the only places that would matter would be big cities who are all democrat strongholds which would effectively turn the US into a mob ruled one party state
no it wouldn't
bruh
yes it would
Do Japan, Australia, France, Britain, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Netherlands, Italy, Poland, and every other developed country live under mob rule? I need a simple yes or no.
have you seen how many people live in LA,NYC and chigago alone?
yes they do Japan is a one party state basically and many of those countries have governments that are corrupt as shit
They literally aren't.
Sweden has implemented sharia in parts of their countries
You know absolutely nothing about those countries and you know absolutely nothing about mob rule or democracy.
