    Or, it’s basic democratic principle that shouldn’t need explaining in a western country.

      The basic democratic principle of “If there’s only one moral choice, Party A, because a supermajority of people support either Party A or the very immoral Party B, it’s not REAL democracy, which would suit MY ideals, not that of those filthy unwashed masses!”

      I think you might want to use a term other than ‘democracy’ for your sentiment.

        No. You’re mad because people didn’t like your choice, and more people liked the other choice. But that’s what a democracy is. Nobody working in good faith promised you that democracy would always live up to the greatest human rights and global trade ideals.

          So now you’re reversing your position, and admitting that it is a democracy. Great. Peak consistency. Fucking ridiculous.

            What am I reversing? The Democrats didn’t convince people to vote for them.
