RE: Note to Americans

I'm sure you've heard this one before, "it's not about whom you vote for, but whom you vote against." Trump Derangement Syndrome is one hell of an affliction. I wonder if Beijing Biden Buyer's Remorse will be even worse in 2024 (assuming he lives that long).

Personally, I'm becoming more disillusioned with democracy by the day. Democracy doesn't work unless the voting block is informed by reason, rather than emotion. Unfortunately, the will of the 51%, which can be easily manipulated by the right demagogue (I'm paraphrasing something that Marcus Tullius Cicero once said, incidentally), is a sacred cow, propped up by empty platitudes. Argumentum ad populum is a logical fallacy for a reason. Of course, the 2020 election was totally fair, with no shenanigans going on whatsoever (honk honk).

I could go on, but my comment is already longer than your post.
