    maybe a sign of a healthy democracy is not one where it hinges on an 87 year old with cancer surviving until mid january

      It just blows my mind that most Americans just blindly agree that this is the system we have to go with and can't even conceive trying to change it or that there are better alternatives.

      It's like playing a shitty board game that's broke and you know in the first ten minutes who's gonna win. You want to just play some other game instead but the person who's gonna win insists on finishing it out by forcing everyone to play along for the next 3 hours. Just fucking get up and play a different game!

        Exactly, Americans love playing Monopoly because it's tradition. It's part of the fabric of their beings.
