  • What’s the issue you have with a non democratic country?

    I genuinely think most people (I used to just think most Americans) don’t understand the alternatives.

    Democracy has been proven not to work, and those involved in it will tell you that they agree, but there’s no better option. -

    Which if you think about it, isn’t really an answer.

    It’s like saying: Democracy doesn’t work, mathematically or otherwise. Try something that doesn’t breed corruption. They all do, democracy is just the best corruption.

    Which is bullshit. Mixing it up is the best way to stop the corruption.

    We need a lot of anarchy in the world right now, otherwise we’re just the fertilizer for power families. Our grandkids are fucked in general, except for the few that get a break.

    I haven’t ever used it, never signed a petition, but isn’t change.org only about petitions? I can kinda see their reasoning… They may even have had their hand forced to do it.

    Loads of people who want their way probably signed up with tons of accounts to skew the results. If it’s going to work, I guess they need to be able to show that they’re legit, out at least that change.org are doing their best to make it that they are.

    It’s easy to set up one gmail account for example and use it a million times with moving a dot throughout the name or putting a plus sign and anything after the username but before the @ symbol.
