Oh yeah, I was agreeing with you. Sorry if it didn’t come across that way. Just sick of the way things are and how out of control we are to affect things. Our elections belong to other governments now and psyop manipulation of the citizens who are still allowed to vote.
Comment on What's it going to take to truly stop the US?

“Democratic decay” implies the US has ever been a democracy, it has not

Its a democratic republic. A form of democracy. Go on with your essentialism though.

We’ve gone from only representing rich white christians to only representing the rich lol, it’s not “essentialism” to recognize the verifiable fact that political decisions in this country are not made in accordance with the desires or best interests of voters, the US is a fucking oligarchy and has been since before either of us was born, read a fucking book

Maybe understand what the meaning of the word decay is.
The USA is 250+ years old. Democracy has waned and and surged over those years. Ill give you the same prescription, read a fucking book.
