Good example of how liberal and ‘conservative’ political parties are NOT the same. Voting matters. VOTE.

Where’s the 920-page liberal plan to put a stop to this? I’m not convinced voting will be enough.

Of course voting is not enough alone – But, it is an integral part.

They’re still arguing over it on X.

You’re absolutely delusional if you think you can vote out fascism to this extent.

AeroLemming ,

I mean… I’d agree normally, but this plan requires a Republican president, right?

Granted, the electoral college makes your vote not matter much.

Ah, the smell of the world’s “best” “democracy”!

Yes it does, but how long do you think you can stop a republican president from taking power? If they don’t get elected in the next 8 years they’ll put one in power, probably by use of the electoral college or depending on the civil unrest we might even see an insurrection. I think that second one is more unlikely, the tools are made to benefit the Republican Party anyways. The rules are all made up and playing by them won’t protect you, you can only buy time.

You’re probably right from what we saw with Trump. I meant more that you could stop that specific 2024 plan by voting.
