a lot of Americans really don't understand that people don't cater to the customer outside the US, you just get perceived as arrogant, doubly so in France and not speaking a lick of French.

white women voted trump, POC voted Kamala, but minority does mean less

ya, but what if you pretend that women are some monolithic left-wing force that totally would take the bear, instead of people? the bear v. man is literally a left wing bubble thing.

no, women chose the man (Trump)

ya, but you don't need to make them everyone else's issues, because everyone's got issues, and no one deserves to wade through your shit as well

and it got to that point after the conservatives already pulled a bunch of voter suppression and the 1933 election where the Nazis got most of the votes, and because the left vote was split, their combine greater total meant nothing

in this respect the American system is better, because everyone knows they are voting for trump, not the less evil trump supporters

what exactly are you talking about? Hitler became chancellor because the NSDAP had the largest support (~30%), he won because no one wanted to support the "lesser evil", imagine if all the left-wing micro parties actually put together and voted just the SPD or KPD, it would literally have stopped Hitler.

yes, Hitler happened because people refused to vote for the "lesser evil" because the ASPD, the KAPD, USPD, KPO, etc... couldn't vote for the SPD

yet you seem to forget that the entire clone war era was a government that had become largely pacifist and demilitarized suddenly needing to deal with racist space turbocapitalists, leaving them scrambling and reliant on Palatine's indoctrinated space cops to stop the literal corpratist takeover of the galaxy

what "solution" is there? both the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the long-standing Israeli occupation of Palestinians lands have the exact same solution, and Russia is just as likely to give up on their Ukrainian ambitions as Israel is at getting rid of all the Palestinians (one way or another)
