    I mean America didn’t really vote for this. Between ramp and gerrymandering, election fraud, and a generally anti-democratic voting system, America isn’t a democracy.

      No no no. America is a perfect democracy in which everyone has a fully informed and equitable say in governance.

      If the legislature is crippling the economy while the President crushes dissent with a massive paramilitary force, it is only because the people being impoverished and oppressed choose this for themselves.

      They’ll have an opportunity to do things differently in two years, when we have another perfectly fair and equitable and fully representative elections cycle, at which point they will once again be responsible for everything that happens afterwards.

      America isn’t a democracy.

      Only a Russian Wumao or a North Korean Iranian bot would say such a thing. You’re trying to trick us into not voting! Well, I’m not falling for it. I’m going to vote. And then I’m going to blame everyone else, since our democracy is perfect and everything bad is the fault of my neighbors for not voting the way I did.
