Literally nothing to actually help the nation or solve problems.

Just culture war, and only culture war.

And unfortunately by the looks of this comment section, it works. It forces people to focus on the culture war aspect of it and not the lack of actual progress, or the changes behind the scenes while we all fight over the culture problems and the real dismantling happens out of view.

I mean, this is beyond culture war. This is tyranny of the state. We're not exaggerating when we say they want to put us in the camps.

This is important shit we're talking about, not a distraction.

Oh, actual progress? Oh boy it's my time to shine!

As per moderator request, a unique comment for you. Enjoy

Individuals ought to have the liberty to vote for the candidate who truly embodies their interests. By replacing the prevalent First Past the Post voting system, citizens can confidently support third-party candidates without fear of a spoiler effect. This shift would foster electoral competition, thereby enhancing the caliber of candidates accessible to all. Moreover, it would incentivize greater political participation and voter engagement. Progressing state by state, we can empower voters to select representatives who align with their values while effectively weighing their votes against undesirable candidates. Start with your own state today!

Because the old people already have money and are bored as hell, so they need culture wars to get riled up while having nothing to do all day
