Maybe when he hits puberty and his voice changes he will have something interesting to say???

2019-11-19 01:45:21 UTC  

oof, the salt

2019-11-19 01:45:31 UTC  

wew lad, what did old Nicky-boy do?

2019-11-19 01:45:34 UTC  

rape your dog?

2019-11-19 01:45:36 UTC  

Ah yes, let the legislature legislate term limits on themselves that totally won't breed a ideological system that will put limits on some senators who do actually try to pass something good for the nation.

i lost respect for dan cathy after hearing today that they bowed the knee to leftists instead of standing to his company principles(yes, i'm salty)

2019-11-19 01:45:55 UTC  

Well, I mean how else would you impose it lawfully?

2019-11-19 01:46:12 UTC  

Not at all

2019-11-19 01:46:16 UTC  

No term limits

2019-11-19 01:46:32 UTC  

Term limits need to be a thing

2019-11-19 01:46:41 UTC  

No they don't

2019-11-19 01:46:46 UTC  

Fix your ideology

2019-11-19 01:46:47 UTC  

You have to have a regular challenge of power

2019-11-19 01:46:59 UTC  

"No term limits" is one of those things where it sounds good until the other side gets in power

2019-11-19 01:47:17 UTC  

@randomNPCno3 there is a regular challenge of power...we call them elections

2019-11-19 01:47:51 UTC  

Demographics determine who will get that power. Who cares about term limits if they will vote for more of the same? And what ideology do all the demographics root for?

2019-11-19 01:47:55 UTC  

Could say the same about elections in China. They have them. Doesn't mean much

2019-11-19 01:48:19 UTC  

@hiddendjinn why have elections if there's no term limits?

2019-11-19 01:48:26 UTC  

yeah, this pendulum swing shit is getting a little out of hand

2019-11-19 01:48:44 UTC  

I'm gonna watch Nick Fuentes, later boomers

2019-11-19 01:49:06 UTC  

@randomNPCno3 at any election cycle, in a free system, the incumbent can be voted out

2019-11-19 01:49:27 UTC  

Honestly, I understand it as a heuristic, but I've come to see the whole "demographics as destiny" thing as being kinda racist, and not in the SJW REEEE EVERYTHING IS RACIST, MATH IS RACIST way, I mean just plain old dictionary racism, as it presumes a person's identity is deterministic of their ideology when we have examples to the contrary. The only one that might be relevant is class.

2019-11-19 01:49:31 UTC  

But even then ...

2019-11-19 01:50:46 UTC  

the only thing stopping that is an apathetic electorate

2019-11-19 01:51:12 UTC  

Which, let's be honest, there are a lot of reasons why the electorate are apathetic.

2019-11-19 01:51:15 UTC  

The point is that term limits take the decision to step down out of the incumbents hands, how much biased support do you think a lifetime president has when they've ran a country by giving positions to friends. What's a good country without term limits?

2019-11-19 01:51:20 UTC  

Need Ranked Choice Voting too

2019-11-19 01:51:24 UTC  

and when the electorate is apathetic, what does it matter? they reap what they sow

2019-11-19 01:51:46 UTC  

Cuz it affects the rest of us

2019-11-19 01:52:17 UTC  

Ranked Choice would make people feel like they're voting for who they actually want, rather than the lesser evil

2019-11-19 01:52:19 UTC  

do something to make people care?

2019-11-19 01:52:30 UTC  

I mean, I do my part, but ...

2019-11-19 01:52:31 UTC  

I would say that demographics are important but not in the way that either SJWs nor Groyper's pretend.

Note I used a 5 minute not 5 hour vid....

2019-11-19 01:53:18 UTC  

I think demographics are important in terms of where to focus attention, but doesn't say anything meaningful about individuals and thus can't be the basis of policy

2019-11-19 01:55:28 UTC  

if you're talking about PRC, they haven't had meaningful elections in 70+ years

2019-11-19 01:56:54 UTC  

I thought their elections were whoever ran out of bullets first?

2019-11-19 01:56:58 UTC  

My point exactly. How many terms would FDR have lasted if he didn't die in office?

2019-11-19 01:57:19 UTC  

but if you're talking about the US, grassroots campaigning is going to be the only way to create any affect on the political landscape

2019-11-19 01:57:41 UTC  

And if the electorate votes for term limits?

2019-11-19 01:57:59 UTC  

if the electorate votes for term limits, let us have term limits
