I have learned of a new ideology that fits right in with Utopian idiocy of Ancap and Ancom.

lol

The "Direct Democracy"ers

Oh, yeah

Somehow, the Metros will suddenly and without question see the Rural as "Equals"? LMAO

Top tier autism with Ancapistan and Ancommie....Oh and the "Status Quo" I defend, isn't even "Status Quo" anymore. Its Founder Constitutional Republican Government. Decentralized.

Well, slavery didn't end

Wait, you just learned about the direct democracy faggots?

I wonder if he was ever told the truth, that Women's Sufferage was far from a Majority Popular idea, even among women

I knew about them @galesteppes, just didn't realize how deluded and utopian they were

Ask him if it's okay to let 40% of the population speak for the other 60%

Ah

Oh he thinks magically the Cities will treat the Rural as equals, and never abuse them

Even after I cited 2 cases where the Metro Majority have already done so in Ballot Measures which is essentially Direct Democracy

He also kept avoiding the fact Metros want guns banned nation wide and if it were Direct, that right is poof.

Citing numbers won't sway people.

You need to fight them on a visceral level

I litterally sent him the news about how Cali cities directly caused rural droughts and lack of water.
And the horrendous Oregon "transit Tax" fully for Portland Metro Alone

But he either avoided or came back with "Well portland supports the whole state so what?"

I'm like...so...they support the poorer counties...by....stealing money from them?

Ahh, so votes have power based on subjective value

Basically

Well democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting for dinner

But don't worry, the decades of Metros voting against the needs of the Rurals will immediately end with a full national direct democrasy

Cause he wills it

Isn't that when rurals decide to revert back to subsistence farming?

They couldn't...cause they would be voted not to. <:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

Ahh, like the gulags

I give this Utopia a slightly longer survival time than Ancapistan, because he still admitted the Monopoly of Force would be in the hands of the rather vague "Government". But it honestly would collapse before the "True Communism" utopia. It would take as long as the first right revoking vote finished before the US would Balkanize or simply a civil war happen.

I'd rather take my chance with private security in AnCapistan

Eh Ancapistan would devolve quickly to warlordism.

I'm not saying the "Direct" would do much better. but the shell of a gov could hold it together until a new series of orders are needed and have to wait for a vote.

Like the biggest flaw avoided is the time frame a vote of the people takes. It took weeks to finish the Presidential vote...

Your guns would confiscated immediately, and civil war would erupt

Not 'immediate' it would take a month or more to hold the vote and tally it before movement

But then yes it would end in Balkanization and/or civil war would be immanent then.

Pro Choice yet Anti-Killing Vegans confuse the ever loving shit out of me. Trying to run the mental gymnastics that they have the right to force you to not kill an animal to eat. But Women have the right to not be forced to carry a life. But can kill and simply dispose of a life because it is inconvenient... Even trying to describe the position confuses me...\
