that's not true in the US, a republic not a direct democracy. Never has been.
- farts_mckensy 2y agoAh, blind deference to the status quo. You got me on that one.
- JumpCrisscross 2y ago> blind deference to the status quo Because unchecked corporate interests / you don't vote for the President but for electors are hot takes? (Also, "your vote is at the very least supposed to be proportionally significant to the general population" doesn't technically make sense. I think I know what you're getting at. But even ignoring the political structure and just focussing on voting, you're assuming by statement values for parameters which lie on a spectrum.)
- farts_mckensy 2y agoYou're trying to trip me up on technicalities that are completely immaterial to my point. Blind deference to the status quo illustrates poor critical thinking skills.
