minus-squareazuth@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down3·27 days agoYes Stalin famously implemented an electoral college. The only reasonable explanation for an American to support the EC is claim it’s democratic is him being a Stalinist or a Russian sock puppet. Couldn’t be an American internalizing USA’s own jingoistic propaganda about how it is the most democratic and free state etc. Always somebody else’s fault.
