Democracy doesn't need a #435Tourniquet on Congress. (White supremacy & corporate oligarchy sure do!) Representative Democracy is revolutionary! #UnCapTheHouse!
@suetsam Politically organized ignorance & prejudice kind of sucks, huh. But it works to get the American People to vote against their own interests--until it doesn't.
As the US becomes poorer and less free--like Russia--will the increased suffering bring learning or even worse fascism?
@Mindcite_US OK fine, but WHY does a “representative democracy” keep its representation frozen in the year 1913 despite constantly-growing population?
The #435Tourniquet on Congress causes the ElectoralCollege to malfunction when the vote is close, and grossly favors Americans who #CashVote.
@BobDobs1881 When Representation fails to grow with the population, we are sliding backward.
The #435Tourniquet has been on Congressional representation for nearly 100 years.
It causes:
electoral college malfunction
a loser-appointed SCOTUS majority
trickle-up tax policy and broad poverty.
@omgsidewalks Insurance is a good model for things that might happen. Like a car crash or a tornado.
It is a piss poor model for things that are certain to happen like needing health healthcare as we grow older.
@Dave_Burneey i’m sorry for what happened to you during your childhood. It should have NEVER happened. Get some therapy. Supporting a pedophile doesn’t help.
@BeingJWood@Dave_Burneey People who survived childhood sexual abuse by actively forgetting it ever happened become adults who support a pedophile. Suppressed childhood sexual abuse is the dark matter holding MAGA together. It should never have happened.
But it did. Get some therapy. Don’t for pedophiles.
@funder John Roberts was the 1st loser-appointed justice on today’s court. Now there are FIVE justices appointed by 2 presidents who both gained office by losing the PopularVote.
It is terribly destructive when the ElectoralCollege malfunctions. #UnCapTheHouse to REPAIR the eCollege.
@jim_urso Children who survive sexual abuse by forcing themselves to forget what happened, grow up to be MAGA and support pedophiles.
If you see this man as someone who survived childhood sexual abuse as best he could, it’s easier to see him with compassion. It should have NEVER happened.

@arbazkakkar5 The problem with trickle-up capitalism is it leaves a whole lot of poor people at the bottom.
Broadly-shared poverty invites fascism.
#UnCapTheHouse to restore healthy CIRCULATION to the US economy.
Fair taxation is 100% pain-free & non-lethal. Fascism on the other hand…VOTE
I’ve been detained by the IDF, along with a group of rabbis & volunteers. We were simply harvesting olives in a grove near Nehalim in the West Bank.
The occupation is a crime under international law. Harvesting olives isn’t a crime under any law I know.
Only in Mississippi can a doctor go to prison for 10 years if they perform an abortion.... but a cop gets off scott free if he murders a
1 year-old child with his fucking gun.
@es_edwards He shifted the federal tax burden onto the middle & lower economic classes more than any previous President, including George W. Bush.
He bought off corporate media with ginormous corporate tax cuts in 2017, and then signed the Big Billionaire Bill gutting the safety net. VOTE
