Are USians likely notice that the Democrat primary isn't very democratic?
Are USians likely notice that the Democrat primary isn't very democratic?
I'll start off by pointing out that last 3 primaries have been some kind of funny business.
- 2016: Bernie snuffed by Hillary with shady tactics that lead to the D losing to Trump (lol).
- 2020: Everyone drops like flies to support Biden (sus, but allegedly because Trump and Covid were bad).
- 2024: Biden waits until the last second to announce dropping, there seems to be momentum to skip the Primary and go with Kamala Harris.
Assuming everything I've stated is accurate-enough, do you think the average person is likely to feel like this isn't Democracy? Or will this be business as usual for the US? Will the absence of censorship on tiktok be likely change anything?
For this reason, until there is a primary that Kamala wins, I want every mention of Kamala Harris to be prefixed with a formal title like Kamala Harris, the appointed, the unelected, in a similar vein as Mother of Dragons, Daenerys Targaryen.
You're viewing a single thread.
The DNC won a lawsuit after the 2016 primary by arguing in court that they're a private corporation and do not have to even pretend to be democratic, they could pick anyone they want and ignore primary votes and it wouldn't break any laws. This made zero impact on the voting public and the devoted Dem voters will gaslight you and deny there was anything weird about the 2016 election. If you point them to the book written by the DNC chair at the time where she outright says they fixed the primary, they'll do the Westworld "Doesn't look like anything to me" + blank stare
One of many things that will immediately raise my bloodpressure to pre-hypertension is trying to beat this information through the ceramide laced brainal dome of the average liberal.
