Sure.
The state absolutely should be spanking these weird tranny freaks, for example.
Or thots fucking anything that smiles at them.
Or nogs doing their WorldStar shit on every street corner.
And then once wokescolds get into power you can't buy a house or use a credit card
Let's not let them into power then.
Easier to neuter power than to guarantee someone you don't like never gets it
Mormon sex cult??
Virginia just went solid blue: discuss
@Beemann Sauce? Because what I'm proposing does eventually fail, sure. What you're proposing has literally never worked anywhere, ever.
It unironically has a worse track record than communism.
@The Bitter Draught IT sucks
I think it was coming, our cities are going solid b lue
My district in VA had no Republican on the ballot
If they both eventually fail dont they both never work ever?
Also it doesnt appear to be an eventuality. Consolidated power gets abused pretty quickly, while decentralised power takes time to centralize, all components being roughly equal
Only a Democrat and a Libertarian and a write in
The Richmond Times dispatch is shitting itself in excitement like a puppy when you just get home.
and the puppy just got done eating every edible thing in the garbage.
Our VA newspaper
Im up in Nova the bluest part of the state
Yeah my whole town is blue as can be.
WE just renamed some of our schools because they were named after some big name Democrats who were party leaders for decades.
Also they turned out to be hardline segregationists.
You don’t say!
Im shocked
Dems and segregation?
Maybe it was before
the
parties
switched
I was being sarcastic

A. Your system doesn't "eventually fail", it never gets off the ground.
B. That's like asking if drinking water really works to hydrate you, since you eventually have to drink more water.
> Also it doesnt appear to be an eventuality.
Assuming you're not living in a fantasy world, it absolutely does.
> Consolidated power gets abused pretty quickly, while decentralised power takes time to centralize, all components being roughly equal
Not really. Additionally, decentralization makes accountability much harder. Finally, we were talking scope of government, not centralization.
I'm not sure what Beeman and Kevin are talking about.
Also I foresee taxes, gun laws, and comical redristricting comming soon to the Old Dominion.
@The Bitter Draught Dont you know the parties swtiched sometime after 1960 and before FDR?
The US ran the system I'm talking about, until it was undermined primarily in the last hundred years or so. Decentralization is a sliding scale. It's not dictatorship or ancapistan. Further,
1) decentralization means that you are ruled by a more-local body, which is more accountable
2) scope of government is a factor of centralizarion
@Beemann Coudn't you also describe it as the power of a local government who is more responsible vs a remote yet still authoritarian system?
Local can certainly be totalitarian or loose.
I wouldn’t describe it as a switch per se.
