Why do users act like they understand politics?

I know we expect honesty, but it's not really all that 100% honest of a system.

It may be logically in a vacuum (due process, checks/balances, etc.), but in practice and execution it's very "sometimey" which is the frustrating part.

That's when some groups get the benefit of the doubt and some don't.
Let's call it what it is and don't play us like we're dumb here: some groups get privileged/lopsided treatment.
That's a fact with mathematical validation.
That's why the system doesn't really work as advertised. If it did, the world wouldn't look the way it does today.
There are simply too many exceptions going in all directions depending on who you are.

Your rules are only as good and consistent as you enforce them. Everything else doesn't matter until that's truly been resolved.
Show me a true, fair system first and then we can have a more pure and honest conversation and get to real solutions about "politics".

The idealistic system is different from observable reality.

I understand there's a balance. Due process and allathat.

However, I also see when either side really wants something done, they get it done.

A lot of times though that something is :mjpls: it's really easy to see that.


Here's the recursive pattern:
1. Conservative leadership basically drives things to the ground.
2. However, before it has a chance to get the reset we need we decide it's gone too far and elect Liberal.
3. Liberal is usually the safe status quo, so they never really get anything done. They never get rid of the threats they need to thus the virus persists as a ticking time bomb waiting to go off. Status quo Liberals are basically glorified enablers.
4. Conservatives (because they were never rid of) bide their time waiting for/manipulating Liberals to make the mistake, spread like a virus^^, rile up more of the audience and get re-elected.
5. Repeat.

Our floor keeps sinking this way.

Until you get the first part resolved, it'll never fully work no matter how much we lie to ourselves while victims actually feel it.

This is really aimed at 70% of TheColi rn. I don't think a majority of users have a clue what is going on past the headlines of current events. Or dont know the process of anything, ESPECIALLY, geopolitics and funding. And just go around typing "both sides" when it's really not. It's lopsided as shyt. Almost every thread ends up being an embarrasment because users don't know what they're talking about and start putting their emotions into arguments. It's been like 400 Russian bot articles posted on here in the past few months. I don't care who you vote for but damn do some of yall even know how to decide who to vote for or do basic research?

One hundred billion what?
:wtf:

You right they can’t even get a speaker of the house.
We dun elected ACTORS to office multiple times. This shyt is jokes. Arnold, Ronald and Donald.

A muthafukka who is a KNOWN FRAUD is still in his position, making statements like he's supposed to be taken seriously. Because them maintaining a front of power is more important than competency and legitimacy.

Yeah, we need to do step 2 and 3 the right way: elect the people that will get rid of the virus completely, somehow.

I'm not supporting it anymore until we get that. I value my vote to actually do something.

All of this is out of spite.

Easily but I just want them to do better research.
Yeah I've decided I'm not worrying about it anymore. We will see what happens next year. One way or another they won't be able to hide it lol.
