I have been banned from Imgur for commenting on this post that it was authoritarian to call for the abolishment of your political opposition.

Palpatine has spoken, it is the will of the Senate and therefore the galaxy!

It's all theater though, we know it's those at-at killing, Jar-jar eating Ewoks that run everything anyway. The rest is just for show.

Wow, reading the comments on that meme is so depressing. So much uneducated nonsense. Literally vote blue no matter who low info morons voting for bad leaders and terrible policy then blaming everyone else for it. Someone even said we need rank choice voting, which is how tyrants steal elections. None of their comments were grounded in fact or reality.

These are the fucking idiots who praise the system when the electoral college gets Obama elected, claiming that this is why democracy works.

But when that exact same system gets Trump elected, they immediately call for it to be dismantled and replaced because it's outdated and doesn't reflect the will of the people.

They're little better than livestock, existing only to be harvested of their votes (which the system does, for now, still need) and their taxes.

I'll admit though, that there's a dark and hateful part of me that wishes these people would get what they so fervently desire. That we become an authoritarian monoparty and then I can enjoy their confusion as they try to point the finger at the person to blame for their new crop of problems (real or imagined), but see only people exactly like them in power. I wonder if any of them would become self-aware at that point.

Fucking retards, many people don't seem to know what democracy actually means. These kind of judgements have no place in Democracy, if you believe in the sacredness of Democracy, the will of the majority or plurality makes the thing right, and there are no higher governing principles that one could appeal to if 51%+ of the people believed a thing you didn't like

I legit think that Imgur is filled with botfarms controlled by the american democratic party. It's full of anti-trump, anti-conservative and anti-Putin stuff all day long. In the comment sections, you never see anyone voicing a contrary opinion, ever.

Yeah I doubt these companies operate any differently than the traditional media who manufacture consent for special interests

I actually don’t believe in democracy. We’re about to destroy our economy. And the majority of people think warm weather is bad.

Only people with an IQ above 130 who are educated should be allowed to vote.

Like I hate to say it. But clearly, there’s whole blocks people, who don’t vote in their own interests. And people who want the destruction of America, because they are stupid, and edgy.

Fuck them.

Why would anybody still use Imgur? Theyve been doing this forever.

They let you upload high res images without caps or quotas and never delete them ever after years. If you know of an alternative that does the same, I would gladly use it.

Sure because the majority of our government is democrat that is causing our country to die.

I sure hope those fuckers like to pay more in taxes for bailouts.
