      1. Yeah, that’s not a fucked system at all

      2. Where? The soup kitchen you’re about to eat from once his people crumble this nation?

      3. You’re gawdamned right. Best time to start was yesterday.

        1: Reform must always be attempted until revolution is the only choice left

        2: Yes, and political campaigns for stomachable Dems

        3: Just in case…

          1. And, just humor me: when, exactly, is that? Are we waiting for a sign? Did we already miss it? Will we ever decide on which one is THE sign, anyhow?

          2. Isn’t that a Blue unicorn, though?

          3. That’s ardently hopeful of you

        It’s really not. It gets fucked all the time because people expect to coast and not participate with anything more than a tweet. Used to drive me crazy the folks who’d say “by not voting, I’m voting against the system” or some other shit. Jesus… not voting just removes barriers to those crazies like Trump. You gotta be in it to win it.

          I hear your point, though the Electoral College is the glaring flaw in that logic, in regards to presidential elections.
