I’m encouraging you to show me.
I think I’m alright. I’m not going to waste my time any further.
You: The systems broken, I can’t get what I want!
Me: It’s up to your representatives, get involved, get better people in office
You: They call me a communist :(
Why say anything if you’re just gonna misrepresent what I’ve said?
You’re showing some conflict of interest, but come on.
Yup, that’s generally what “in the pocket of the rich” means. It means you have a conflict of interest to rule in favor of the rich because they have given you shit. I sincerely do not understand what part of that you’re hung up on.
He just ruled on roe v wade, show me how he’s in the pockets of the rich for that ruling
Just because somebody is in the pocket of the rich doesn’t mean that every single ruling will have something to do with money. You have an unrealistic expectation here as well.
If you’re looking for rulings that blatantly side with the rich, the citizens united ruling is the place to start.
Here is another good place to start: https://time.com/5793956/supreme-court-loves-rich/
Or anything, come on, you said it, make your point.
See the above links.
You said the system is broken and it’s because you get called a communist by someone online.
No I did not. If you’re going to spend the time to debate you should at least understand what people have said.
So you’re sad because vote isn’t overriding every one elses?
Nope. Never said that either.
I don’t know what you want me to say, to you not getting your way every election
I want you to acknowledge that there is no such thing as a simple solution for these problems. You keep saying “oh, just do X if Y doesn’t work”, but that’s not the reality of the situation, these problems require significant and complicated change.
Maybe. Are you able to prove this at all?

Just because people disagree with you doesn’t mean the system is wrong.
I never said the system is wrong because people disagree with me.
I’m just pointing out that these solutions you are giving aren’t anywhere near as effective as you seem to think they are.
doesn’t mean that we should actively go against our foundation of the nation. Sorry weed isn’t legalized, doesn’t mean that we should remove the judicial branch from the government.
Already covered that part:
“I don’t mean to say that legislation should be through the judicial branch”
You can thank the Chevron Deference case for that. Hopefully this SC court rules on that next year.
The supreme court is also in the pockets of the rich though.
Get involved. Vote for better candidates.
I do, and then those candidates typically don’t get very far because they get called communists for daring to say that maybe healthcare shouldn’t be for profit.
