    Hmmm don’t they? hasn’t MTG been reelected twice already?

    I’m sorry but I am finding hard to believe this is not a reflection of the USA when it has taken about 20 years to get here after EVERY POSSIBLE WARNING. Best I can give you is that the majority may not be like this but could not be bothered ticking a box to avoid it

      It’s supremely fucked up, you can rest assured on that.

      Also, wherever you live in the world, the powers that be are working right now to construct this exact same mousetrap for you, so when a minority around you consolidates power, breaks traditions and laws, and continues for years - you’ll know what it’s like.

        I have no doubt they are trying… but at least I plan to go down swinging if it comes to that

      It’s like the times you want dessert and you’ve been given a choice between a cucumber and a rotten stinking corpse, and you say ‘meh, I think they’re equivalent, so maybe I’ll sit it out this time’. And the other people pick the corpse and everyone gets sick eating it.
