    You seem to.

    What the fuck are you trying to argue? My point for the entire time has been that unlike modern first world democracies, the US uses indirect elections, ie the electoral college. This is a massive problem in democracy for the US and luckily, it can be circumvented entirely through state legislation without any need for involvement of the federal government.

    Your counter-argument has been “WYYAAA WYYAAA WYAAAA”. Not really clear what you’re trying to say with that, so please, do elaborate.

      That is like saying the people in the US don’t elect the president because the Electoral College does.

      I was the one who brought up the Electoral College at the start of this thread, not you.

      That is like saying the people in the US don’t elect the president because the Electoral College does.

        Aye, you did.

        That is like saying the people in the US don’t elect the president because the Electoral College does.

        You wrote that as if you were being sarcastic, but what you don’t realise is that it is what is happening and the fact that the US has indirect elections and still thinks of itself as the bastion of democracy is pretty ludicrous.

        tldr I don’t think you know what “indirect election” means
