I feel like the folks who felt super justified in not voting are now obsessive on this. but. but. other people were supposed to get us the democrat against our will....
Why are you okay with your fellow citizens being under represented by First-past-the-post voting?
Do you still beat your wife (or husband)? Seriously where the hell did your question come from in relation to the chain. I don't believe I have seen anyone, anywhere on here or even way back on reddit and shit that has ever defended first past the post or said it was preferable. Its like citizens united. No one ever seem to defend it or recognize it as legit except the folks that made the ruling yet it does not get changed.
That is not my experience at all. I'm mostly seeing people the, "Harris ran a perfect campaign," crowd buying in on this one.
who is like ran a pefect campaign? no politician runs a perfect campaign any more than anything else is perfect in the world. It was fine relative to any other, but elections should not be determined by how well campaigns are run. If politicians put up a an accurate list of their accomplishments and platform online and participate in debates that should all that be needed for an electorate to vote in the modern age.
Joy Reid. She was very impressed that Queen Latifah endorsed her. It's made her into a sort of a poster child for liberals who are delusional about the Democrats flaws.
So your saying Joy Reid ran a PERFECT campaign. No flaws, no errors, of any kind. She is some kind of automaton or divine being. No one does anything perfect.
...no. I'm saying Joy Reid, an MSNBC pundit, believes Kamala Harris ran a perfect campaign.
Well yeah and all sorts of fox news pundits think trumps campaign and everything he does is perfect. Pundits gonna pundit (lie)
...OK. Did you think I was agreeing with her when I called her the poster child for liberal delusion?
no I thought you were giving an example of a perfect campaign or something. Which to me would be the delusion. Really though I think we have to ignore pundits and non sensibleness if its not from politicians mouth. Thats all manipulation.
