A long yet necessary read on the video of “Palestinian celebrations on 9/11” posted by accounts like @Breaking911 and @25YearsAgoLive

This account’s bio claims he is “live-posting as a reporter embedded in history.”
My account is a meme page that has had “not to be taken seriously” in its bio when people think i’m anything but satire.
2001 Live is batshit and I will wear his block as a badge of honor.
A mixed-member proportional system (like Germany and New Zealand) would negate the effectivity of gerrymandering and allow for a multi-party system.
In just one election, NZ went from 2 party control to 5 proportionally represented parties in its federal chamber.
Left: "Mad Tom or the Man of Rights," a British print (1791) attacking Paine for trampling the British crown and order.
Right: "Mad Tom in a Rage", an American print (1801) attacking Paine for trying to topple the pillar of "Fedl Govrnt" with brandy and the devil's aid.
Paine and Jefferson, the targets of these attacks, did not believe in absolute democracy. In his 2nd letter "To the Citizens of the United States," Paine states that he "ought to stand first on the list of Federalists" if the term meant belief in a united general government.
The Federalist press portrayed Jeffersonian Republicans as atheistic and anarchistic advocates of absolute democracy, which would undermine English values by eliminating law, order, and religion. In their place would come something unfathomable: universal suffrage.
Here are 2 pages from the Aurora (Philadelphia, Feb 3, 1803). One excerpt from "The Port Folio" (founded by Joseph Dennie, ex-editor of the Gazette) conflates Jeffersonian Republicanism with absolute democracy, stoking fears of "Gallic" anarchy.

You just fundamentally don't agree with our system of government and are just throwing a temper tantrum
The minute you don't get your way you want to flip the table like a child
And you need to get over citizens united. That was the correct decision
New video where I make an arts and crafts version of my first meme on here while talking about Obergefell for 30 minutes. Hope you enjoy.
