I'm not quite that cynical yet, but they already control the judiciary, and once they rule on the ISL case--and we all know how they will rule--our votes will become worthless. That's the last hurdle. And our votes now can't affect the court.

Very correct, but still vote. Let them destroy democracy, don’t make it easy on them by not participating

And this from the country that voted in The Don! :D All in love and fun - I can't imagine either of us chose poorly, but unless our citizens get off their fat arses and vote, both countries will be sipping on the foul chalice of fascism, thinking it's the Holy Grail.

No you are right. The majority of people straight up are not capable of even voting in their own best interest. It is beyond their programming.

You can choose a capitalist who causes the rise of fascism, or a diet coke fascist.
