Do We Let Them Vote Next Time?

This assumes that these temper tantrums are some sort of anomalies of the American and British people. If people truly don't want their government to do do things, who is to say they should.
Not having children makes it easier for me to say this of course and if I'm lucky I'm living only another 35 years.

 

"Our"? I'm-a rely on you to tell me what it's like on the inside...

 

This is what happens to mature nations.

When those new ideas include explicitly undermining the values one claims to hold, I'm not sure how your way is "better". By all means, attempt to remove the franchise from "people I don't like"! But the catch is you'll have to do so through a legal framework. Go ahead and propose an Amendment!

The solution to said situation is not to throw your toys out of the pram, become an anti-democratic shitheel, then pretend you have done something democratic.

Things have been unacceptable for a while from my point of view. History did not begin in 2016.

Clearly it's to do impossible things that violate the principles you purport to hold dear!

1. Be persuasive, or
2. Be a tyrannical shitheel.

Be persuasive. I'm sorry that you are insufficiently so. It is clear that you and I share that in common.

 

Link?

1 out of 2 is not bad.

 

You do seem to be skipping one step.

I guess if shit does get crazy, The US can have a round 2.

 

Yes, it is the only way it would pass.

With out the 1st civil war the 13th, 14th and 15th would not have passed.

So we will need round 2 for the 28th+ to pass, or just create a new one.



We could also have a new constitutional convention, but the people that voted for Trump and Trump like repugs will have to have representation, unless we go Civil war 2.

Many with revolution/civil wars.

 

Growth slows.

If you would like to launch a revolution, I wouldn't necessarily be opposed. Persuade me.

 

I mean Brumie, in Bolivia a president packed the supreme court with his friends/allies, he then tried to force a referendum to amend the constitution to allow him to run for a 3rd term, when it failed, he just got his packed court to over rule it and allow him to run.

Then after election irregularities he was declared the winner of the election by his rubber stamp elections board.

The opposition rose up and protested.

The military said that they would not back the President, now the President is in Exile in Mexico city.


It can happen, and it can fail.

 

Define "unite." And I think your use of the word "world" is a form of question begging Aristotle warned against in his lost work on logic.

 

FYP

 

I was going to post it on the conservative media bias thread, but since we’re discussing banning “conservatives” from voting, I decided to do it here:

5. The excesses of the left bind Trump's supporters more tightly to him, even as the excesses of the right make it harder for the Republican Party to command majority support, validating the fear that the party is passing into eclipse, in a vicious cycle.

I mean, his logic is not completely faulty (until he gets to the "excesses of the left"). Basically, is not like the people that voted for Trump - because they're convinced that brown people is taking over - is going to accept quietly that they don't deserve to vote, and they will be partially correct that their votes will not be counted, because brown people took over.

 

Let me know when. Because I'll go down to 7-11 and round up as much Mountain Dew, Skoal, vapes, beef jerky and Cheetos to set Whitelandian traps in my 'hood.
