You are in a room where everyone already agrees that high speed rail is good.

Someone makes a (very fucking obvious) joke about how high speed rail is so good we should build them next to highways to make carbrains jealous.

You: um actually we shouldn't try to make people feel bad. Making people jealous is bad policy decision. Doing that would make the train less efficient too.

Everyone else in the room: yes we know you joyless nerd.

Those are good questions that you could get good honest answers to if you wanted. Other hexbearians are much more articulate than me.

We are aggressively welcoming to anyone who's genuinely just trying to learn. stalin-approval

I mean yeah because the US does the same horrible horrible shit other existing countries do just more of it. Mentioning the smaller problem while ignoring the bigger problem(that we are closer to) is just how liberal brainwashing works.

Let me be more blunt. We do not live in a democracy. Voting is fundamentallly unable to change that.

The crux of the issue is, where you see a democracy that is keeping fascism at bay, we see through the illusion of choice that keeps allowing the slow steady march towards fascism.

It's a ratchet. Gop moves everything rightward (including the Dems) and the Dems refuse to push left in the name of "bipartisanship". Then conditions get worse (because the policy is further right than before), Dems eventually lose because they allow gridlock and the ratchet suddenly frees up and cranks to the right again.
