How embarrassing it must be to lose to this guy. Democracy is dead not because Trump policy but because we dont have any functional parties.
  • I get it. Complacency allows the top to slowly chip away from the bottom. Im not saying to stand and take it. Make your voice heard.

    But what im saying you cant expect not participating to improve your situation. You have to make small wins where you can. Without the support of large social movements, change will be slow and tedious and it may seem nothing changes for the better your entire life. But if you give up and stop putting up any resistance, you can be sure the top will topple the tower and you will have nothing left and will have to rebuild. And the chances of rebuilding to something grander is much more unlikely because you already surrender your only advantage.

  • Tell me which revolution that ended in a democractic socialist society and one that didnt involve millions of people suffering for years?

    Look at the nordic countries. They didnt have revolution to acheive their socialism. It was democraticly elected. Is it perfect? Of course not, but its more than most countries have achieved.

  • No. Giving up voting is giving up a better future. The system is rigged. But the president is by designed limited in power. Change happens in the congress and local politics. The president merely holds the peices togather.

    But congratulations, the short sightedness just handed the keys to the kingdom to a single man. The only check and balance trump has is the infighting within the Republican party and his own incompetence.

  • I dont understand that sentiment... i mean yes, i agree the parties should absolutely do more and listen to their voters... but the fact of the matter you have to play the game because the alternative is worst. You think noone listens to you now? What makes you think letting the opposition win will do for you? It will only make your life worse.

    Do you think the governments in 1930's europe appeared out of thin air? No, they were elected until they held enoigh power to consume total power. Literally tens of millions of people suffered all over the world because people became complacent.

    Dont ever give up hope vote for the lesser evil and push for more grass roots movements so the lesser evil will become the even lesser. If you dont, you may never have that freedom again.

  • The Democratic party refused to understand that courting the right doesn't work, and now it's cost them the election
  • Tbf, you would have to hate yourself a lot to look at trump and say "eh... i dont agree with him and he's likely to completely fuck the country and endanger millions of innocent lives.. but look! The democrats are only saying that they arent trump. I better not do a damn thing and hope for the best!"

    I guess democrats are just are idiotic and short visioned as republicans. Perhaps they are in fact the same.

  • Today's the day! Vote!
  • They arent an officer though. They are basically an attorney that represents the government in a criminal case. They are the ones that decide rather or not to persue criminal charges to present to the court.

  • Not really... the congress passed a law that created classifications for controlled substances and the initial listings (which cannabis wasnt apart of). But congress granted power to both to the DEA and FDA to schedule additional drugs. The DEA is currently considered moving cannabis from a schedule 1 to a schedule 3 already. But Harris could order the DEA to consider descheduling it.

  • Except it very clearly states whats prohibited. It doesnt need to list every possible ways you could solicit because simplely stating "soliciting is prohibited" is clear.

    Do you think murder isn't actually murder because the law didnt specific the method that is required to be considered murder was commited?...

    BTW, Its quite ironic your calling someone stupid for lack of reading comprehension. Do continue, lets see how far you're willing to dig yourself deeper into this rabbit hole.

  • Dont quit your day job to persue a job in law.

    It doesnt need to say it explicitly and its wording is all exclusive.

    Or are you going to try and argue a shirt that litterally says "Vote for <canidate>" isnt soliciting because "the law didnt say anything about shirts!"

    And for the record i did not say you were electioneering. Merely pointing out clothing can fall into the category of electioneering...

  • Did you even look up the actual code?

    (c) No person, when within the polling place, shall electioneer or solicit votes for any political party, political body or candidate, nor shall any written or printed matter be posted up within the said room, except as required by this act.

    It makes no particular distinction how electioneering is done. Just none is allowed in any form.
