BRUTALLY HONEST: They Shout Democracy While They Don't Endorse it...steemCreated with Sketch.

Here is a simple question. If you get to vote on things yet what is voted for does not happen or is challenged then is that a Democracy? I have my own problems with the idea of Democracy, but I have a bigger problem with Hypocrits and Double Standards.

Brexit. I saw a man giving a good speech saying the vote was to "Leave" or "Remain". It was not a vote about Soft exit, or people stalling and saying now they won't even do it. I guess that vote didn't mean anything.DQmPM9iZN2reeds4ittG8G5BBKaZE9AcFGuPhqVaa9fseDs.png
Hillary and Obama both saying that Trump should not contest the vote because it is not rigged. They were saying this days before he won. You see he wasn't supposed to win. They talked about how his supporters would be violent if he won and would not agree with the results.

This is called projection. This describes completely what Hillary/Obama supporters did. They've spent more than a year of disruptions, tantrums, wasteful spending, and purposeful attacks on society to counter the election of Trump.

I didn't vote for Trump. I probably would now. A lot of that is simply due to what he has actually done (I don't like it all) under an unprecedented onslaught. Also largely I've been swayed by the actions of these mentally immature people that happen to have adult bodies.

I am also very angry at Google/Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, and others that believe it is okay to Censor pro-Trump people for pretty petty things, yet they won't censor people threatening or endorsing violence against Trump or Pro-Trump people. You don't even have to be pro-Trump. You just have to be against what they are trying to force feed us.

Another interesting point just to address the "She won the popular vote!!!". Let's assume she did. So what? Obama and Hillary knew the system, and endorsed it. Popular vote does not matter. We do not live in the United States of California, Texas, Florida, and New York. If popular vote was the way we did things then no candidate would ever need to campaign anywhere but those four states. Yet the other 46 states might as well not vote at all they simply would be the slave colonies to those four states. Thus, we have the electoral college with the intent of making this not the case.
SO if I trespass into your house. I get to vote on what the rules are for your house then? I can walk in and sit on your couch. You better make sure to keep your refrigerator stocked. I need food. In fact, I might have more right to that food than your own children. I'm going to bring my kids with me too. When my children are not sitting on the couch in the house I trespassed on they people that own that house better be paying for my children to go to school. Don't bring up that they can't pay for their children. That doesn't matter. They should pay for me the trespassers children. Why? Because, I will gladly vote multiple times for any politician that protects my right to trespass, get fed, and get my children education. The actual citizens and home owners are not as much of a guarantee of a vote.
