One case is too many.

My critique of the video is the creator’s devoted need to make people feel concerned about something that really isn’t that big of a deal.

The “call the guy” rhetoric really speaks for itself. Look at how it’s presented.

Mmm, your entire point can be negated by acknowledging that politicians and elections are usually bought out.

Do you think Congress represents the will of the people? Do you think it should?

I feel like you didn’t pay attention to anything I said and decided to double-down on exactly what I called out on.

Oh well.

What about the 20 years between 1990 and 2010? The 25 years between 1990 and 2015?

I’m not saying they didn’t happen, but they seem to be happening much more frequently now. Hence why we actually have groundings to see what’s going on.

I really think it’s a cultural issue. People get lazy, think technology/training will do it for them, and then reality hits. Hard.

30 minutes of bullshit, and hopefully you can see how this guy who’s paid to make videos has a vested interest in making them seem… interesting.

I’m not talking about convicting the perpetrator. Please stop assuming, lol.

Legally speaking, there is no ambiguity.

But in reality, there is. If you can’t understand that, it’s probably because you don’t want to.

Sensationalism.

I don’t see why you think the constituency would routinely make worse decisions than the people they put in power.

Fact is a large portion of the population has no problem voting incompetently and/or under the influence of malicious talking heads.

What makes you think politicians are exempt from this?
