be sure to remind me of this thread in november friend

trumps winning.

how any why could trump beat a clinton? just like obama won because if you didnt vote for the first black president your a racist your gonna be called a sexist for not voting for the first woman president... dont get me wrong i wish she will lose.. but trump is just a decoy.

In which uhoh thinks the fox news star poll popular vote matters.

Flyover country is a cesspool hive of scum and villainy.

Don't talk trash about Montana
I will cm punk you.

no poll matters friend.

you will see come november.

You won't do a goddamned thing. You have even less training and ability than he does.

Bro.....I am a honey badger. I am newjack. I will posion you. I will cut your break line. I will str8 break your knees. I am trained at being expertly aggressive. You are at best Johnny from karate kid bringing shame to your sensa I. Leave my thread.

I know who newjack is. He seemed legit insane. Was on a legion of skanks episode telling crazy stories that i forget now. But he was out there

You should watch out diode

Veritas might take a razor to his forehead and toss your salad

I might take a razor to his salad and toss his forehead.

But if Montana votes trump I vote trump. There...it is settled.

Honestly this shit is going to be a lot closer than I thought.

Reps 4 lols and probably accuracy

lmao as a former european and someone likely to want to open better commerce channels with his US brethren in the near future

I WILL LEGIT ROFLZZZ AT YOUR COUNTRY IF TRUMP SUCCEEDS

sorry Ameribruhs

Is legion of skanks a podcast?


I need some podcast recommendations. I think I'll make a thread, but if I'm honest, your opinion on shit matters over everyone in my eyes cause we have similar taste in overall hooliganism

Also, this electoral shit has to stop. We have enough technology now that we should be able to count individual votes and let the people truly decide.

the people are fucking morons.

no direct democracy has ever lasted any significant period of time.

Nor has any democracy?

Our democratic republic had a decent run before being perverted by lobbyists and special interest groups (the monopoly/trust era notwithstanding).

Decent, but a couple of hundred years is not really a lot of time when talking about established systems of govt that work well or not

Switzerland?

the roman republic>

Not a democracy

word bro

legion of skanks is dope. it took me a few to get into it though, so i'd recommend listening to older ones although they have like a network now so they might only have the 10 newest episodes available at a time.

either way if you need something to throw in your rotation throw those in. even if you don't like it give it a few before you quit.

its big jay oakerson, who is the biggest name on the podcast, luis j gomez, a puerto rican comic, and dave smith a political guy/comic but its basically described as the most offensive podcast lol. they just go past the line habitually when riffing.

its also NY based so that and bobby kellys podcast help keep my rotation from being strictly LA comedians. gets alot of the o and a guys like rich vos, jim norton etc

neither is america, its a republic

like the roman republic we democratically elect people to represent us.

Yeah, in theory
In practicality, it is an oligarchy

Rome purposely and deliberately put all of the power in to the hands of the wealthy...America has to be a bit more subtle about it.

There are actually a lot of parallels between America and Rome.

nonsense

america may have a better cover of wool to pull over the eyes of the people, but rome at least had a political office with actual power that spoke for the plebs/poor

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribune_of_the_Plebs

while sure if you wanted to be consul (like a president) and you had the "peoples" best interests at heart you would most likely be knifed. like the countless number who did just that and met that fate. but you could always be the tribune of the plebs

if the senate and or consuls wanted to do something that wasn't in their favor the tribune of the plebs could just veto it. and they would have to go along with it. the office was sacred. you couldn't harm them or go against them.

and you can argue that well the richest would always get voted in to normal seats, and it was set up so the noble families already had the power and influence to be elected, but how is it different today?

even at the local level the candidate with more money has more influence and just better name recognition. if there is a sign for bumfuck mcgillicutty in every yard, when you go to vote how likely are you to vote for the other guy you never heard of. it was the same back then

if TIDUS SATURNUS JUPITERNIUS shows up on the BLOCK with a cart full of bread for the people, they're gonna vote for him

its the same

humans don't change.

Side note, the radio told me some local death metal legend was voted into Senate against his wishes and now MUST serve four years before being able to step down.

It's not different from today, I'm just saying the Romans were much more blatant about it.

And the tribune of the plebs was a great idea, but it was only relevant within the City of Rome.
