1·6 months agorepresentative, vs direct democracy
not that the whole edumication thing has been solved, but this shit clearly ain’t working
old people don’t have anything to do BUT vote, and bitch and moan, and most importantly to them, reminisce.

“You! You’re the reason I’m quitting. Yeah, you’re just kind of a shithead, you never do anything, you just kinda run your mouth all day long and I can’t fucking stand it. Like an unbuttered piece of toast thinking it’s interesting…”
discord is totally the best thing. Anyone on the internet want to explain why I’m wrong?
Google has been this bad since their initial IPO, when they signalled their intent to do this, and should have been stopped to protect the most useful public utility ever invented. Since that day they’ve been a pimp; the decision to become a pimp led to this.
