It's like watching the NFL and getting hyped when a referee throws a penalty flag.

  1. It's entirely subjective (the ref can do whatever he wants, so long as the other refs agree).
  2. You had no influence in the decision.
  3. No influence in the outcome.
  4. Both teams are owned by the same people.
  5. And finally, this is all over a game which was made up, and is in the hands of other people.

And yet, you still get pissed off about the outcome. Why?

Power doesn't come from political theater. You are doing exactly as you are being told: "get upset over a symptom, ignore the disease".

Yeah except when you talk about "muh election rigging" it's always Red v Blue bullshit

You're convincing no one, unless they're already on your side.

There are better ways to prove government corruption. Best way is to focus on how the "Two Party" system is an illusion, that they both work hand-in-hand. This makes all the election debate irrelevant, because everyone is voting for the same party.

The "Uni-Party" is my go-to talking point IRL. Two sides of the same corrupt coin.

People already chose their sides. The goal now is to push normiecons further right and to destroy their egalitarian mindsets.
