…?

You currently do not have fair elections. I didn’t say it couldn’t get worse.

Absolutely absurd statement. And you still cant seem to wrap your head around why that is.

I never said it couldn’t get any worse lol.

I know i said I’d ignore you but you just can’t seem to stop yourself from throwing more of these shitty disingenuous arguments my way.

You can ignore me all you want, ignorance is bliss. I’m not arguing lol. America, demonstrably doesn’t have free and fair elections. You are trying to deflect by talking about Russia and China, when your country is literally already in the same boat. Nobody wants Biden or Trump.

Go argue with yourself then:

“You think it can get worse than an 80 year old Zionist vs an 80 year old fascist?”

And leave me out of it.

This entire thread started with the insinuation that we could get rid of them in 4 years. I’m saying that if things get worse we won’t even have that choice in the future. This is not a difficult concept to grasp. I provide China and Russia as simple examples to get it through your hear and you then claim I’m changing the subject. You’re the one wallowing in your own ignorance.

Hopefully I’ve cleared all this up for you now and you can let me take a shit in peace.

Are you ignoring me or slandering me, make up your mind.

THE US, RUSSIA AND CHINA: NONE OF THESE HAVE FREE ELECTIONS.

Do you understand what I’m saying now? We don’t need to bring up the other two, while we’re discussing America.

Maybe proof read your angy dump posts before hitting submit.

We have a 2 choices, they have 1. 2 is choices are better than 1, even if both choices are shitty. One shitty candidate still has to compete with the other shitty candidate to win votes. This is better than 1 shitty candidate with full reign and no accountability.

Perhaps you dislike both candidates equally, and have somehow decided that you will always hate both candidates equally, now and in the future. In that context, perhaps you think you are making a concrete point.

But I am not you. I’d prefer Biden over Trump, and I can vote for one over the other. If i couldn’t, that would be worse, for me, and many millions of other voters who don’t share your equal/perpetual disdain for both candidates.

So yes, it can get worse. If not for you, then for others, who are not you. If you still don’t understand the source of disagreement here, God have mercy on you.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That’s all the rules!
