    You see this sort of cognitive dissonance from tankies all. the. time.

    They shame Americans for the faults of their government implying we have a functional and legitimate democracy that is at the behest of the people.

    Then they say some shit like this;

    “Americans are directly guilty of the genocide because POTUS supported Israel and Americans elected POTUS.”

    Mfer, the ‘electoral college’ is who you’re mad at. And all those Americans you blame are mad at the same people.

      To clarify, the people on the electoral college are not the issue. They generally follow rules set by their state. If enough states pass laws agreeing to the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact then the electoral college then just becomes an obfuscation of the popular vote, without the need to a constitutional amendment.
