Oh, but were not a democracy, were a constitutional republic hardy har har har har

• my republican friends.

And a few days after that, PragerU releases a video titled “Why democracies will fail eventually”, which tells its viewers that democracy creates “moral decadence”, and now a “strong leader” is needed to fix the issue, who might have told some noble lies like a parent tells their kid the stork brings the children when they’re not ready for reality. And the video ends with a “Roman salute” over “God Bless America”.

“Could lose”? We are long past this point. When you can chose between two parties and they try to manipulate the election as hard as they can, then that’s a zombie democracy at best. And now? The president stands above the law. He can fire people illegally. He can disable law enforcement. Democracy in the US is gone. Hopefully only temporarily. Now it’s up to people to act, take their rogue government down and repair what can be repaired.

1. Democracy isn’t a status given by some watchdog.
2. Democracy is shit

Damn. When Sweden (or any Nordic country) says it, it really hits hard.

Baby, you haven’t been a democracy for a while

America is lost. Do not let Elon near your country.

“You’ve only been a democracy for only 50 years. Not unless you don’t count black people… you are nearly as mature democracy as Botswana.” - Lukas Matsson (Swedish guy) on Succession

Trump’s approval rating us TOO DAMN HIGH!

Could? Do it now.

Just publish an addendum and yank it. The great experiment failed. We’re cooked, chat.

sorry for derailing a little:

why is there multiple links to choose from as a source? What exactly created that choosable format - are they automated, is this some system like groundnews or something?
