The fact that they have to do this just proves that they are immensely unpopular right now even among independents and republicans. What some see as hopelessness I see as opportunity. If they have to cheat this badly and blatantly that means that they realize that the masses are pissed at them. They project that they are popular and that this is the will of the people on purpose while they know the truth.
I have heard how unpopular republicans are since Bush. They keep winning, whether by cheating or stupid people or both.
They are destroying this country and Dems are just like ok.
They realized this decades ago! The entire conservative strategy has been to stack the deck because their policies are objectively garbage used to justify the transfer of wealth in our society.
When you remove people’s official political agency, they turn to non-offcial political action. And by that I mean violence.
Have these people never picked up a history book or do they somehow think their situation is special?
American exceptionalism? Is this that?
Ngl, they should have been matching the undemocratic representation shit the repubs do a long time ago in order for there to be legislation put up to stop BOTH sides from doing it.
Look at where taking the high road got us.
Defeat our enemy by becoming them? How will that be a win?
Absolutely. Fuck the high road. If the system is rigged why should you play by the rules? I’m not saying that things like gerrymandering are a good thing when Democrats use it, because it isn’t and should be banned, I’m just saying that if they are going to rig the system you might as well use it against them. But from what I’ve learned the easiest way to ban something like this is to use it against the people that take advantage of it.
