People have gone and lost their minds about so many things lately. Holy crap.
If you’re not following Savannah from New Orleans on ALL THE THINGS, what are you even doing? She’s amazeballs. I particularly love her on Tiktok, even though that app is the LITERAL WORST (and if you’re a FB insider or Locals supporter then you saw my exclusive video for y’all there about WHY they’re the literal worst – holy crap it was bad yesterday). Anyway, Savvy has this way of explaining things that is just perfect in every way.
Take, for example, her explanation of our constitutional republic, and why the freakout about the “loss of our democracy” is ridiculous.
You go, Sav. YOU GO ON WITH YOUR SAVVY SELF.

Slightly disagree with her. She said two branches were to represent the People- only the House represents the People. The Senate represents the States and the President represents the country as a whole (People and States). I think that 17th Amendment has done far more damage than it has fixed.

Who is this ‘Craig’ person, and why is he even commenting this nonsense? The democrats killed the super majority for Supreme Court nominees, so go complain to Harry Reid. The republicans are just playing by the current Senate rules.
I have no idea but as per usual someone tries to argue against what I said and proves my point.
Democracy = rule by the Democrat party.
That’s incorrect. McConnell got rid of the 60 vote threshold for the Supreme Court. Reid did it for lower courts due to McConnell stonewalling of nominations, i.e. subversion of the US government.
Ok so your argument is that it’s only specifically because of the Supreme Court?
Good lord the special pleading.
No. My argument is that McConnell and the GOP have been playing the long game, subverting democracy to keep control of the government as the minority party. His fuckery with the Judiciary has been front and center in that effort.
I’ll just completely ignore what’s going on and say “we’re not a democracy!” I’m so smart! I’m a conservative!
Can you please explain how something going from 9 justices deciding it to now the people get to vote on it is ruining democracy?
The only meaning I can divine when people say “it’s ruining our democracy” is that democracy is rule by the Democrat party.
Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Coney-Barrett were put on the court through the subversion of democracy by the GOP. The Supreme Court is illegitimate.
Screaming nonsense and lies doesn’t make it true.
If you don’t like the rules as used blame the Democrats who changed said rules. That the GOP used them to greater effect is not a “subversion of democracy”

Nonsense and lies

Really enthralling commentary there Mock. You’re a grifter and a traitor.
Oh – I’m sorry – you seem to be under the impression that you’re allowed to insult me on my own site. That’s incorrect.
And it really doesn’t matter if you try commenting under Greg, Craig, TJ, or whatever. You’re a loser with a 1000 logins. That’s what YOU have to live with. I have no problem continuing to block further comments from you in whatever format/IP/email address you use. We’ll all know it’s you, we’ll continue to block you, and you’ll be the loser with 1000 aliases. Good luck with that.
