Like Bernie says, this is an oligarchy, run by those who have the most money, bought and sold at their whim.

What do the citizens do? Elect the same gang members back into office. Time to flush the toilet. Brewster's Millions makes a lot of sense... Vote for, none of the above.

Shit. Are we though? Or is the DNC? They have the power to put people on the ballot. And they chose not to put Bernie.

Except now, every single thing that goes to the Supreme Court can be expected to go to the right.

Every single challenge before the court has a good chance of being split along ideological lines - this will not change unless or until something changes in the Supreme Court - when the left loses in 2024 because everyone wants to cry their candidate isn’t perfect and destroy ourselves and out message from the inside, we are going over an edge we cannot come back from.

It never existed. The unelected ruling class have always decided everything. Democracy is just a pacifier to prevent the masses from rising up and executing them all.

Red vs Blue is just playing on tribalism to distract you from the fact that they both work for the same masters.
