you realize places without elections still have them, they just mean nothing right?
Comment on Realistically... How fucked is the US?
Aermis@lemmy.world 1 week agoYes. Yes there will be. Even if everyone who voted for Trump is OK with it if you think the rest of America is just going to be ok with dismantling elections you’re being irrational.

You can argue American elections have meant nothing either.

This has happened plenty of times in other countries. To think it can’t happen here is what is irrational.

I don’t think any country in the world has been in the position America is in. Similar sure, but not the bastion of wealth and power, with a stubborn population. There would be a civil war before they remove democracy. It’s more likely that elections will be a front to the fascist seats of power. The elections aren’t going away. What they mean is a different story.
