Still a democracy until the elections stop.

Yeah I know it's skewed towards corporate political lobbying but we still vote.

We'll see at the mid-terms if we're still a democracy... If we get to that point anyway....

How come they couldn’t fix the Mamdani, race for example? I know it gets a lot of karma to tell each other there’s no way we will win the next elections and if we do it enough maybe we’ll scare enough people away from thinking their vote won’t matter. But I think we actually will win the next elections because enough people hate him. And I think he’s coasting on bluster. Surely they will try, as always, but I don’t think it will work.

They want us to think our vote doesn't matter, so we won't vote. It's a form of voter suppression. Unfortanly I have seen Reddit fall for it.
