It's a flawed system. But the fear that idiot populism puts too much power into the hands of unscrupulous demagogues is far outweighed by the fact that "alternatives" to democracy would concentrate even more power in the hands of a self-appointed and unaccountable elite, with no guarantee that the common good would be any better served. So... Heads or tails?

Nah. Youre trying to make sense of the amount of time youve invested into literal junk that directly disenfranchises others and tell others to put stock in thatHow can a spectrum that encompasses e every human being on Earth disenfranchise anyone? What the fuck do you think politics are? The problem is that we try to fit political views into two neat little boxes. We don't respect that it is indeed a spectrum. I'm literally speaking against the concept of politics as a team sport and you're going off on some weird rant about morality. The solution to the political climate is not to pretend to be some centrist weirdo with correct apolitical political opinions --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

He just stood behind the 1994 crime bill.The crime bill wasn't racist although it had the effect of mass incarceration of black people. It was designed to address a growing gang violence problem in the country that is still going on today, but no one cares about anymore and even if they do, no one will talk about it. I can feel the mods eyeing this post just for mentioning it. Didn't he vote against desegregation though, or did I just make that up? I thought he did. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Personally I think we should introduce the concept of subjective voting value, with the value of each vote being decided by a mandatory questionaire that tests one's objective political and societal awareness. The higher the score, the higher the value of the vote.
This way, democracy is less susceptible to fake news and foreign influence. Besides, it makes sense that the people who invest more time investigating how the system works, consider all the options and fact-check things have more of a say than those whose research is little more than clickbait articles and Youtube algorithms. --- The secrets of the ancient world have been unearthed.

I truly believe everyone is talented at something. But asking people to vote for a political candidate, in a perfect world, requires them to be knowledgeable in a wide variety of topics ranging from economics to foreign policy. Voters are more likely to vote for a candidate based on how many women he slept with than his actual agenda. Yeah but you have to realize that the reason people are like this is because of propaganda. The same people campaigning or who make the products we spend money on create this idea that we should follow so that they can have all the power. --- #Restorethesnyderverse ... Copied to Clipboard!

The problem is that we try to fit political views into two neat little boxes. We don't respect that it is indeed a spectrum. Nah. Youre cooked, its not morality and it is not encompassing of life itself You attribute every single issue conceivable under the sun politics as if its the ONLY box that matters because it encompasses matters of all sorts - thats disingenuous to life itself and the actual moral weight of issues People dont need to be hooked on politics, they need to give a damn about life and stop giving FOX, CNN, politicians and media the time of the day so people can get back to thinking about the world Discussions on politics lead way to questioning the very idea of a womans body, peoples rights, and is directly responsible for the disenfranchisement of people Stop giving this shit credit - it doesnt deserve it and it has done absolute dick for society beyond give the absolute bare minimum of life You can participate in politics with the mindset its a cycle of fuming garbage instead of kissing its ass --- ...
