If the voted government was not legitimate than voting is not a process that legitimizes the rule then is it?
Voting is just one tool of many to try to improve life for as many people as possible.

I don't know how viable that actually is, a decade of Trump flags and Trump shirts and Trump merchandise, and decades of Trump branding everywhere before that. The Trump cult is in too deep.
The GOP winners will probably be the ones that poach the Trump brand as "we are Trump's chosen ones to carry out Trump's vision for America", until his cultural significance wanes.
I did some more research and this is no joke:
Globalism is bad, being fair is bad, Europe-first, huh I wonder where we've heard this kind of rhetoric before.
Not that they hate authority so much as they believe they deserve to be on the inside/protected/oppressor class. They hate being held accountable for anything.
This is a case of classic fascist friendly fire.
There was an option to buy the planet some more time, and there was an option to burn up the time.
That time could have made all the difference, but now we'll never know, because some silly goobers decided it was worth burning the planet to own the libs.
Just wait until you find out that Trump is a white supremacist who entertains Nazis at his home with private dinner parties.
Accelerationists helping accelerate global warming :(
While certain things can be automated the robotics technology to fully replace humans is probably still decades away.
Mostly likely they will use prison slave labor, using the same immigrants.
Diaspora is the fediverse version of Facebook. It hasn't taken off quite like lemmy or mastodon and it's much older, but still seems to be in active development.
Convincing family is hard, I have a lot of them moved over to Linux already, but they don't want to quit Facebook :(
There's no getting out, what happens in America affects the rest of the world too.
Nazis have the federal government in a chokehold but there's a lot of resistance at local and municipal levels. I'm just mid level management but after Trump's announcement on "two genders" I immediately let my trans and nonbinary employees know that they would continue to be seen and respected and validated at work regardless of what the white house says.
The worst I fear is still the issue of global warming, it's already bad and the white house is locking in on releasing all the CO2 it can - and the entire globe will suffer for it.

The people who aren't voting are even more complacent, prove me wrong.
