To play devils advocate here donating to get their office back up an running gave cover in case it really was a Bernout or democratic operative that did it. Sure you give your opponent a few hundred bucks to spend against you, but you take the high road and you help win over moderates that would be otherwise repulsed that your party implicitly supported bringing physical harm to the other side. (I didn't donate, by the way)

Just because I'm tired of people constantly invoking it to justify not voting - has the Electoral College ever voted against the will of the people? I realize byzantine districting laws determine how a state actually goes but still - have they ever broken the rules that govern how they vote?

To play devil's advocate, all of that liberal/Democratic good will did a lot of good when Richard Burr is "making jokes" about asking why there aren't paper targets with Hillary Clinton in cross hairs. Oh wait, quelle fuckin surprise!

I think the point is that, if in the last month or so every single notable poster of color in D&D has been probated for "breaking decorum" in an argument about racial issues, perhaps our sense of what should be off-limit in terms of decorum is unfairly skewed towards white comfort.

Phone posted:2000. Next question. I.... don't think that's what happened? I'm willing to hear otherwise. There was a close popular election in key states, notably Florida, and the courts ended a recount. The EC still obeyed what they believed to be the popular vote in those states at the time. EDIT: TO clarify the quesiton, I understand our byzantine indirect voting structure leads to all-or-nothing states and that's a lovely problem but it's not like the EC just flips your state the finger and votes however it wants, which is the complaint most people make about it.

Oh, that's a much better reading. I thought the point was people were earlier saying Koala should be a mod and this point was  just what we need, a mod who is gonna yell at us and say gently caress you all.So that post made me pretty mad. But maybe you're right in which case that would be a good point. Point is, Koala whoever (I'm real bad at names and I'm phone posting) is right. We all suck. gently caress disenfranchisement. And gently caress Trump and his fascists everyday amen.
