Well, remember, both the American and Australian colonies were the rejects not wanted in England so it isn't surprising when it turns out those descendants are racist pieces of shit.
As extra context, the current governor, Roy Cooper, dropped out as a VP contender for Kamala because he was worried that this dipshit would seize power if he left the state.
I always hear that excuse about the rural areas not being represented without the electoral college, but my only reaction is GOOD. Rural areas are large in land ans small in people. Why should they get an equal voice as a Metropolitan area with the majority of people? A government is supposed to reflect the will of the people. The not ALL the people, that would be impossible, but but an average of the majority of the people.
Additionally, the government at the federal level has relatively minor impact at the local level. The federal level is broad strokes, the local government is fine strokes, and the state level is somewhere in between. Rural dwellers can run their local government however they like as long as it doesn't violate state or federal laws.
Can someone do a quick ELI5 on who the bad guys are here? So much crazy shit going on all over the world I'm having trouble keeping up with who the fascists are.
A lot yes, but my parents are very religious, anti-abortion, anti-gay, but vote blue because they still believe that the important thing is to treat people right. Their belief is that God should be the judge of others actions not them.
Thank you for being more articulate in your explanation of the age issue than I was. I agree whole heartedly. 64-65 is retirement age, I like to see presidents that are experienced but not at what would normally be the end of their working years.
Personally, I'd like to see a max cap for ALL elected officials at 70.
I have a friend that was wondering what version that was so they can avoid the same mistake. What should I tell him?
