They only approve of biased concepts when it benefits them personally

Looks like McConnell has already be struck by his own Force lightning.

McConnell can’t veto Bidens cabinet. But certainly will make everything as difficult as possible for the sin of being a Democrat.

Man

What will conservatives do when they find out their only prayer at winning the Presidency is through an unearned boost?

how are those two things even comparable

“Conservatives” have always complained that affirmative action unfairly gives an advantage to minorities simply based on the color of their skin.

The electoral college gives more weight to less-populated states and diminishes the value of the overall popular vote (see the presidential elections of 2000 and 2016 for immediate reference).

affirmative action does give blacks and latinos an unfair advantage because it takes away from whites and asians and in fact said minoritys. the electoral college on the other hand allows smaller states to actually influence the election, because if we went off of the popular vote they wouldent mean anything and primarily leftist states with high urbanization/ population would win almost every time so haveing the electoral college makes it so super small states can have a small but meaningfull sway on the election, also with immigrants being on the left primarily the system could easily be ruined.

“it isnt affirmative action, because it doesnt guarantee anything it is just something that allows for states to have a say in politics.”

If it gives more weight to the minority, it’s no different than affirmative action, no matter how you try to argue otherwise.

In providing evidence, you’ve proven my point, repeatedly. Time to do the slow Bruce (David) Banner walk into the sunset.

it gives more weight sure but it doesnt make them worth more than they actually are unlike affirmative action.

What the actual f**k are you talking about? Skin color gives weight in college admissions and job interviews the same way being a shithole state gives more weight in presidential elections.

That’s a DIRECT correlation.

its not about being a shithole state its about every state being under one system, its like saying affirmitave action trancends skin color

it gives more weight compared to the popular vote

So that’s means one vote doesn’t equal one vote.

That diminishes the value of one citizen’s vote based on where they live.

This is getting tedious.

one vote means one vote. one senator means one senator. it does not diminish anyone it allows everyone to have a say equal to their population

address the point coward dont hide behind a image

One vote is one vote, except in presidential elections. If a majority (even by one vote) votes for one candidate but the other candidate wins because of the electoral college, the minority is given more power than they’ve earned.

Pulling yourself up by your bootstraps, personal responsibility, and the like...isn’t that what Republicans preach?

...ad for the record, only pussies call people cowards online.

Just sayin ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

the left only complains about the electoral college when they lose... anyway, for the most part the person who gets the popular vote wins only in a very few instances is that untrue, the electoral college gives those with smaller populations a better chance of effecting the election, it doesnt give them something unearned it gives them a fair amount of points.

how am i a pussy for calling you a coward, all you did was hide behind a image for a straight 5-10 mins

gg ez clapped cupped sped

Thank you for understanding. When the popular vote matters, one vote = one vote. Under the electoral college, one vote is weighted one way or the other but it’s not equal to one vote.

The only time the electoral college “works” is when it benefits the Republican Party and gives the minority more say than the majority.

Effectively, it’s affirmative action for idiots.

it evens the playing field. if popular vote was installed coastal and leftist states would control the election every year therefore benefiting the democratic party greatly.

So does affirmative action.

maybe in theroy but it leads to intelligent blacks and latinos going to schools too high up and leading them to the bottom of the class grades

Says who?

Thank you for using an 8-year-old article to prove my point.

The electoral college is affirmative action for “shithole” (to borrow and Trumpism) states.

i can find more recent articles although i thought the atlantic was best for you.

it isnt affirmative action, because it doesnt guarantee anything it is just something that allows for states to have a say in politics.

“if popular vote was installed coastal and leftist states would control the election every year therefore benefiting the democratic party greatly.”

Waaaaaaah our policies only benefit the few so we need to curve the vote to make sure our side gets an equal say, even though we’re the minority.

Sound familiar?

tell me some policys that benifit others from the democratic party. also im not going to let a brainwashed party rule over the united states, sorry...

See below.

see below where? you didnt list any

Democratic (and predominantly union-friendly) states are richer than right-to-work states, as a starter. The outlier really being Texas but that’s oil money.

Rich states pay federal tax dollars that go to poor states.

Socialism.

you havent gave me any policys.

why do you keep saying socialism?

also the elections are pretty close every year its not like right wingers are 2% or whatever

Minority is minority.

its not a great minority never the less

“Coastal” and “leftist” states also predominantly pay for the majority of the country. The northeast (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, etc.) and California float the rest of the country. Hell, California, on its own, is the fifth largest economy in the world.

But yeah, tell me how Kentucky or North Dakota should be telling those states how their money gets spent.

That’s sounds like....duh, duh, DUHHHHH!!!

SOCIALISM.

kentucky and north dakota are not individually telling those states how their money should get spent but those states have a small say in getting a repersentative who possibly will influence those states, mostly it is up to local leaders.

No, Kentucky and North Dakota and Mississippi and Alabama are sucking off federal tax dollars that the “coastal and leftist” states pay in.

it doesnt matter... they still should have an say in the election.

So, socialism good, but only when it benefits you?

how is it socialism?

“you havent gave me any policys.

why do you keep saying socialism?”

So being union-friendly isn’t a policy? Right-to-work isn’t a policy?

Hello? Is this thing even on?

right to work is a rightist policy

and define union friendly

“how is it socialism?”

You’re an idiot.

AD HOmINEM

address it coward

When you take the money from rich people (blue states) and give it to poor people (red states), that’s socialism.

It’s been repeated probably ten times already. I’m sorry if the ridges of your brain have been too smoothed out to grasp the concept.

Have you driven on an interstate highway? Thank socialism. Have you used a toilet? Thank socialism. Have you ever walked in a park? Thank socialism.

For the record, you’re not that scary. You’re actually pretty sad. If I stop answering you, don’t get your panties in a bunch. I’m either busy or whatever you said is so inexplicably stupid that it doesn’t warrant a response.

how is it socialism its welfare.

whatever you say kwanklin

that isnt socialism you f**king sped its goverment funded infostructure not everything is socialism you jack rabbit face buck tooth bad breathed commie.

when did i ever think or say i was scary? i dont care what your opinion is on me i dont know you you dont know me and for the record you arent as intelligent as you think you are. good for you, busy being a nuisance to your parents who struggle every day to find a reason to love you or doing useless "projects", if you think what im saying is stupid you obviously dont read your own comments, taddle doo chanklin.

How is socialism? It’s welfare.

That statement right there says it all. What a derp.

All welfare is socialism but not all socialism is welfare.

"All welfare is socialism but not all socialism is welfare." how?

claiming everything is socalist is idiotic its a goverments duty to provide services to its people through taxes. america is the least socalist place there is with the largest private sector on the planet

LOL

what funny

tell me another place with a larger private sector, a place with more rights than any other, a place where people can oppose their own goverment or have their own ideas.

what funny m8?

Holy cow, you can’t be this dumb.

The richest states in the union also, and not coincidentally, are the donor states.

The poorest states are right-to-work states.

and? i asked for policys and you gave me two one of which is a rightist one... also have you ever though abiout population size or industry affecting economics.

“how am i a pussy for calling you a coward, all you did was hide behind a image for a straight 5-10 mins”

A) I don’t live on your timeline
B) You are the type that would *never* speak to another person like that face-to-face.
C) When in doubt, refer to A and B

A? how do you not live on my timeline lmao re you some kind of god who is exempt.

B if we were face to face you couldent hide behind a image

C this isnt a point

“the left only complains about the electoral college when they lose... anyway, for the most part the person who gets the popular vote wins only in a very few instances is that untrue, the electoral college gives those with smaller populations a better chance of effecting the election, it doesnt give them something unearned it gives them a fair amount of points.”

Fair to who?

The electoral college has propped up the Republican Party for entirely too long. If a popular vote means the Democrats win every time, maybe it’s time for Republicans to start amending their policies to satisfy the will of the majority of voters? Maybe Republicans are the dinosaur that needs to embrace more progressive policies or turn into petroleum.

It’s natural selection on a political level.

fair compared to other states and from the metric of senators and population

or maybe more people should stop brainlessly watching the news and instead do research by themselves. progressive policys are for the weak and those who want "good" without seeing the obvious trap laid out, "the mouse doesnt realise why the cheese is free untill it is too late"

its propaganda and on set political views taught through schools.

how old are you?

Old enough to easily handle a doorknob like you.

funny joke, im asking fr. if you dont feel like you have to tell me, how about weight and height
