US Midterm Election 2018 Megathread- It's Kavanaugh

[Telconi]

It would be difficult to follow something I never said.

So why dont you run for state legislature then?

I dont have any desire to? Besides, legislators are required to live in the state. Living in the state sounds awful. Why would I take a job that I don't want to do, and requires me to live in a terrible place?

I thought you were from California.

You know, just because some of us are passionate, doesn't mean we're remotely good for running for anything, or give a shit to.

This is relevant how?

For one thing, public speaking skills are an area I imagine a large chunk of this nerdy forum are lacking in.

Technically speaking I'm "from" California as I was born in Sacramento.

I certainly lack public speaking skills.

[The Flutterlands]

Because everything is just pissing me off and every hope in sight to expel the toxic Congress keeps getting struck down by the Courts or refused by the state itself.

Destroying democracy is not how you do it.

What is democracy has been highjacked though?

Mine are actually pretty good, years of explaining to people things they don't want to hear can hone some weird skills.

We use necromancy to get Cincinnatus back from the dead.

An accurate representation of Flutters right now.

So gerrymandering is not hijacking Democracy?

On Tyranny my Timothy Snyder is also a good read relevant here

Lesson here, you might think you're saving democracy, but in fact you are advocation the erosion of the most basic tennints of democracy, a government with a balanced separation of authority and power. In your hysteria you have advocated for the destruction of democracy, not the saving of it. You are blinded by your ideology so much so that you are willing to destroy what you want to protect and can't even see that.

Something must be done!

So gerrymandering is not hijacking Democracy?

Given the representatives have the legal power to draw their own districts, and they were democratically elected, I wouldn't say so.

Oh wow you used an insanely partisan activist group to try and make a point.

Should I start using the heritage foundation as evidence now?

So in other words you think they should rig elections so only they may win because they won?

So in other words you fail to see the nuance in people arguments and just read what you want to read because it suits your political world view?

[Dahon]

Guys, please do as I did and put Flutter on your foe list -- he's not gonna change. He's been chastised again and again and again, and I need my peace of mind.

Well if the law says so, which in this case it does, sure.

No reason to make them a foe. IMO.
