117th United States Congress: Insurrection 2021

1. You don't need to vote in the primaries to vote in the general. This argument only holds water for the general.

2. See above. The dem candidates were not all that extremely different in policies.

3. Maybe the vice president everyone is so excited to become president when the current one keels over?

1. So... don't vote... K

2. This is just wrong.

3. This is also wrong, not sure why I would have to explain that.

Excellent analysis, there.


"It's only ok for me to vote for old people because reasons, but we shouldn't allow others to vote for old people because reasons."

[Ksandra]

And keep in mind I was very very critical over the ages of biden/warren/bernie. But I am still not down with banning them from running.

I never said anything about not voting for old people. I was just making fun of you for claiming people shouldn't vote if their candidate isn't perfect.

ITT people who want age limits in congress but voted for Biden/Bernie/Warren in the primaries:

You can want age limits but still vote for someone older because of the limited of candidates. By saying the above you are suggesting you can't.

[arus2001]

That was what also prompted my last reply.

No I am saying it's hypocritical. You can admit you are being hypocritical, and I can mock you for it. It's not illegal.

[Yabby]

So the only way to not be hypocritical is to not vote unless your candidate is perfect.... thanks for making my point, again.

Literally not what was happening and you know it. We have people with full on hard ons for those candidates and never once was like "Well technically I would want them running to be illegal but no one is perfect."


gtfo with trying to make you feel better.

[Yabby]

Not sure who you are talking to, as I said, I wasn't on the ban old people train. Don't get mad because what you said was dumb, and I'm making fun of you for it.

[Ksandra]

I am talking to the people on BG who wanted those candidates and didn't care about their age suddenly turning around and wanting to ban them.

You gotta be able to play the game as it currently is before you can worry about how it should be.

But apparently the game was fine as is until you (general) got what you wanted first.

[Dotsudoku]

that's a really dumb take

What possible improvement could you have by putting an age cap on?

Did you see any of the hearings with Google, Facebook or Twitter? Do you expect that level of illiteracy to improve as technology continues to march on?

[Byrthnoth]

Age cap is pretty easy to justify, although we have a few oldie but goodies that still have all their shit together.

Term limit is less easy to justify and doesn't solve the same problem.
