Yeah... This is what MAGA looks like here.

A lot of people are confused about what's happened to my country. The answer is that votes from people like this are being counted as far more valuable than people in big cities that understand and respect science.

I'm speaking literally.

They have MORE of a weighted importance when voting.

    Trust me, I know. County v county and whichever side has more counties gets the state, then whichever gets more states gets the win. Instead of something reasonable like population, this makes rural areas almost guaranteed to beat urban areas.

    I'm American too and the election system here has always been awful. Unfortunately we're taught that it's 'the only way' or whatever the power-mongers would say.
