Democracy is when only 14% of voters get to decide an entire election and the other 86% are functionally meaningless (hexbear.net)

This is based on 43 states being considered "non-negotiable" and "set in stone" while only 7 are considered "swing" states

Also consider I specified "voters", who are at best only 2/3 of the total population, which leaves out about 100 million extra people

go personally stand in a specific corner of a public school gymnasium

I first saw footage of that on tv when I was a boy in the late 1970s. I couldn't believe it. I don't remember if I had seen SNL by then or not. But the thing in the gym certainly seemed like something from a comedy sketch and not something that was real that sane adults actually did.
