The whole thing is broken. We are not a democracy, certainly not one that citizens deserve.
Every state getting two Senators, an effing joke.
The Jim Crow Senate itself, worthless.
Nine unelected judges holding seemingly unlimited power? Offensive.
All of them working from a relic document written 240 years ago, by a gaggle of slave owners whose primary driving belief was in utterly unfettered capitalism?
If you believe we have a well-working representative democracy than you aren't paying attention. This country is in decline and if it works for you then you're probably one of those 1% riding merrily along on the shoulders of the rest of us.
I don’t necessarily disagree with you as a someone that votes mostly Republican, but nobody on the left talked about packing the court or implementing a new constitution when they held the power.
I’m all for stricter guns laws, I think the overturn of Roe is not nearly as cataclysmic as the media is making it out to be. Go out and vote.
The problem is the left have swung way too far like the right did with the Tea Party. Get back to moderate liberal policy and you get more blue states. Too much pandering to the progressive left.
Maybe it’s a long game through social media thinking the next generation will all be Democrat, but it’s a bit of a disaster in the near term.
