Dear Democrats: the right-wing power-happy psychos who got elected are largely your fault, because of the power-happy psychos you have been supporting (whom others are now desperately voting against).
Dear Republicans: the left-wing power-happy psychos who got elected are largely your fault, because of the power-happy psychos you have been supporting (whom others are now desperately voting against).
You are both useful idiots, being played as pawns by the puppet-masters.
Have a nice day.
It is your fault that I did not vote for Trump, Jonhson nor any of my local reps. It is in fact your fault that I have not been voting at all since the last presidential and since I've seen a video of yours. So there, how do you feel about that? Me, I feel pretty good about it actually. Thanks Larken ;)
Glad to hear it. :)
both parties are pro-war so everyone who votes is voting for war, literally
Show up to the polls, claim your ballot and write buy bitcoin all over it.
Thank you for this Larken, resteemed! America will surely continue to be ruled by criminals so long as everyone keeps voting for them. I say it's time to starve the beast, and not voting is one of the easiest ways to start doing so. Until the day the rest of America realizes this, keep up the good work for freedom.
Sorry larkenrose but you've no idea what you're talking about and neither has anyone else.
I think it's about time someone made you aware of that.
This article is particularly ridiculous.
Feel free to enlighten me. Or at least say something with a hint of substance to it.
So what are you trying to say in this post other than calling voters useful idiots?
That they voted for the wrong people? Or they shouldn't have voted at all? Or something else?
To my mind it's little more than an insult to most people. With no advice or recommendations as to what they should or could do to to rectify the situation.
And do you really think that voting will rectify anything? Really?
To rectify any situation for yourself, your friends, family and neighbors no voting is needed. This is all just common sense really.
Tell me about it. What is needed?
Don’t participate in the farce that is this system. Voting enables them to continue. If no one shows up to vote then who can they blame? Political parties are a joke, they are one in the same. It’s all money and the person you see in the public seat there doesn’t make a single decision they just rubber stamp it and put on a good show, because ‘democracy’. No thanks.
"If no one shows up to vote then who can they blame?"
I can't see that happening. In fact I'd go as far as to say it's never going to happen.
So do you have any more practical suggestions.
Doing the same thing every two or four years and expecting a different result is insanity really. People taking care of each other and respecting each other's rights is all that is needed. Not electing some special being to get between us and telling us what we can and cannot do. A slave asking for permission won't work. Now you taking actions to better your situation that might work. Better than hoping for some one you voted for to do it for you.
Now, I'm not telling you what you should be doing, I just know what I'm doing, and it's not voting for someone to save us.
What is needed is people taking responsibility for their own actions.
"Now you taking actions to better your situation that might work."
Sure.. I do that all the time and would do it no matter who was in power.
But that's getting away from the point. There can be a difference depending on who gets into power e.g. If Hilary had won the last election the US would be in a much worse state than it is now. With the trade agreements, Climate change hoax, Massive unemployment, massive immigration etc. etc.

There are nations that have been around for countless centuries that have rules but no rulers. They make decisions by voting, but rather than having a 51% majority, everyone needs to agree. There's no doubt that they exist, if you look they are still in the same spot they have been for approximately 1000 years.
Where are these nations? Do they have names and locations?
yeah, one example is the 6 nations of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iroquois . The Onondaga Nation is located outside Syracuse, NY
The Onondaga Nation is a sovereign nation of people with its own government. This government has been in existence for countless centuries.
Like other member-nations of the Haudenosaunee, the Onondaga Nation survives today as a sovereign, independent nation, living on a portion of its ancestral territory and maintaining its own distinct laws, language, customs, and culture.
Today, the Onondaga Nation consists of a 7,300-acre territory just south of Syracuse, on which it maintains its sovereignty and operates outside the general jurisdiction of New York State. The Nation is still governed by a Council of Chiefs, selected in accordance with its time-honored democratic system. In the same vein, many Onondagas practice traditional ceremonies and adhere to religious philosophies and social customs that long predate contact with Western civilizations. Aspects of this ideology have been incorporated into America’s legal system, as well as into its culture. Personal and societal consideration of the Seventh Generation is but one example of a Haudenosaunee world view that has informed, enhanced and enlightened American and other national cultures.
As an independent, sovereign government, the Onondaga Nation government does not pay income, sales, or excise taxes to New York State or to the federal government, nor does it receive any of the benefits paid for by these taxes.
Unlike several other New York native nations, the Onondaga Nation has chosen not to become involved in the casino business or other gambling ventures; instead, the Nation operates a tax-free smoke shop, which funds many community projects, including Onondaga language classes, a fire department, a Nation water system, a healing center, a waster transfer station, and a multi-purpose arena.

The Onondaga Nation and the Haudenosaunee have never accepted the authority of the United States to make Six Nations citizens become citizens of the United States, as claimed in the Citizenship Act of 1924. We hold three treaties with the United States: the 1784 Treaty of Fort Stanwix, the 1789 Treaty of Fort Harmor and the 1794 Treaty of Canandaigua. These treaties clearly recognize the Haudenosaunee as separate and sovereign Nations. https://www.onondaganation.org/news/2018/the-citizenship-act-of-1924/
Although physically situated within the territorial limits of the United States today, native nations like the Onondaga Nation and the other members of the Haudenosaunee, or Six Nations Confederacy, retain their status as sovereign nations. Like the United States, the Haudenosaunee is a union of sovereign nations joined together for the common benefit of its citizens. Governed by a Grand Council of Chiefs who deliberate and make decisions for the people concerning issues both domestic and international, the Haudenosaunee began as a confederacy of sovereign nations aligned to deal with other native nations surrounding their lands and, later, to negotiate with Europeans when the latter came into their territories beginning in the early 1600’s. https://www.onondaganation.org/government/sovereignty/
If you want to know how the leaders are chosen, start this @17:00
Thanks for the info, it's very interesting.
However they seem to be a democracy and they have leaders.
Leaders, managers, governors, are just differen't names for the same things.
Collectively, Leadership. management or governance.
So they have Government, though maybe somewhat different to, and much smaller than the USA, is (as portrayed in the video), fundamentally and ideologically very similar to that of the original USA.
AMEN Larken! RE-STEEMED!
I can appreciate the frustration but don't forget, Larken, we are the ones who know better.
It's not comfortable for me, I expect people to be adults and take care of themselves however, we need to be the leaders on this.
Remember, a brainwashed person is a slave who doesn't know it. It's not easy for them go get out. It's not logic or independent thought that leads someone to vote republican or democrat.
Abstain from supporting their farcical system! Learned the hard way that voting doesn’t matter.
when was the last time a democrat did something left wing?
