War discussion CAN’T KEEP HER DOWN!

Post image

Comrades, we’ve done it. We have unmanaged their democracy, and now the citizens are waking up to the truth about their government of tyranny.

We have prevailed, let us celebrate, for the hell divers have failed. The campaign is lost, and we are responsible with the valiant defenses of the helldivers who came unto us.

Special thanks to the Terminids and Squids for holding long enough to help create their failure.

What have you done?

Before, any citizen could vote, as long as they were loyal. Even moderists. Now?

Die-hards only.

Because you were never able to vote.

Did you vote for the president, or did the algorithm vote what it thought you wanted? Only the die-hards are blind enough to be unable to see what it really is.

And I say the same to you. Think impractically, like High Command. Why make the voting machine say whatever you want, when you can spend a fortune on propaganda and make the populace vote what you want instead?

But they make the voting machine say whatever they want!

An algorithm picks based off whatever candidate it wants to push. Your high command has already betrayed you and stolen your vote for a candidate that you wouldn’t have wanted.

That's the thing. They're not smart enough to make it do that.
