So apparently the UK gets to go on existing until Halloween? Cool. Maybe time enough for Labour to get rid of Corbyn and find a pro-EU/anti-Brexit leader with some actual backbone - or at least a pair of balls.

UNREAL to me that there's a genuine chance, amid
#brexit backlash, to set down a real "fuck democracy when its the votes of regressive idiots who don't count" precedent and so-called progressives are afraid to seize the moment. Opportunity staring them in the FACE.Show this thread
Imagine a world where the stupidest opinion wasn't declared correct simply because there are more idiots than thinking people. Imagine how far ahead we'd be.

Bob, sometimes you sound like the kind of guy who insists that Idiocracy was "prophetic." It's not even that you're wrong. It's just that you've probably voted the wrong way on at least one thing before. It's not reason to disqualify your vote.
-
In strictly by-demographic-block terms, it would actually be VERY smart to disqualify my vote - I'm a white male of lower income, close to middle-age. Statistically, that I vote/think progressively makes me an extreme outlier of my ethnic/class demographic...
-
...if EVERYONE in my ethnic/gender/age demographic venn-diagram was prevented from voting foronly two or three cycles, the situation of this country's politics would improve IMEASURABLY.
-
It would also improve immensely if more people were allowed/encouraged to vote by doing away with the electoral college, gerrymandering, and ID laws, and having more polling places, a national voting holiday, etc.

Imagine if we listened to a 40yr old who's life long efforts lead him to a lonely existence in a flooded basement. Maybe you don't have all the answers Bob. Maybe you just know a lot about games, movies, & wrestling, like any 12 yr old. Maybe stick to what ya know huh?

I say if they leave the EU, then the UK should be disbanded as well... let all the countries exist on their own and join the EU if they want to. If England wants out, then fine, but let's see what the other's do.
-
This wont happen the way you say but if the UK does leave then the next Scottish vote for independence will 100% win. The main reason Scotland stayed in the UK last time was the fact they would have to also leave the EU.

Good thing we have the electoral college to help prevent mob rule.

I guess, we'd be able to use our knowledge to actually help people, like stop giving tax breaks to the wealthy and enforce them to actually do their taxes, maybe start on fixing that global warming problem, allow reperations to be a fucking thing already!
-
allow any kind of positive prison reform and hopefully train our police to be more like Andy Taylor and less Dirty Harry so police brutality and corruption can end, focus more on domestic terrorism, enact harsher hate crime laws and let colleges be generally free
-
so more PoC from poorer backgrounds can attend and let women have the choice to have an abortion without some asshole throwing a bomb into a clinic and maybe open our borders and abolish ICE. In a just world, we'd be done with all those things before we'd make Starfleet a thing.
