North Carolina will vote for the GOP. And then cry on social media when they drive the state further into the ground, take away snap, diddle little kids, no money for hurricane relief, etc.
Hey man, I live here. We’re not a republican state. We have more registered Democrats than Republicans, and between the two major metropolitan centers (Charlotte and The Triangle) we actually should be voting largely Democrat. However Republicans bunched all those voters into a few districts and then gave rural bumfuck nowhere disproportionate representation on a state level. Then they used that to gerrymander themselves into a supermajority, then used that to start rat fucking the good reps out of districts (pour one out for Jeff Jackson). We literally had maps so fucked up our current supreme court said “that’s too far” and all they did was submit shittier and shittier maps until we got stuck with the first unconstitutional one because “we didn’t have another option”
We’re not quite a Mississippi where we’ve been shooting our own feet for decades, Republicans have wrested undue control over the state by being cheaters and it’s important for all of you to see that because they’ll do it to you too
Preach. NC has been rigged. And they’ll do it in your state next.
some people are just obsessed with writing hateful things….
actually i’ve noticed a large uptick in it lately… i think the russian trolls have been reactivated
What are you talking about? They’ll own the libs tho so it’s really a wash /s
The bird choked on toxic gasses in the 1700s. We never have been a democracy.
From anti sufferage to Jim crowe to today, where we have no way to elect progressive candidates and no rank choice voting.
The US has always been a failed attempt at democracy
So then vote for someone who supports ranked choice voting. Just because we’re losing very badly to the FPTP supporters doesn’t mean to give up.
Ya, bbbutttt genocide! Fools.
I’m not saying we shouldn’t vote. I’m saying we don’t live in a democracy.
The outcome of elections doesn’t match what the majority of voters want. We should use many tactics (including voting) to change this.
I think we should let North Carolina do what North Carolina wants to do and then in the future we can ask job applicants in other states where they originally came from and if they came from North Carolina then we just don’t hire them.
Let’s just split all the states let them do their own fucking thing and stop federal taxes. Those Red states can focus primarily on agriculture and mining and manufacturing. There has to be something in North America besides Mexico they can make a shirt for five dollars, and I think North Carolina is a good state for that.
The America-stan dream. Every state to be truly independent and fend for themselves with no federal government oversight.
Those states will fall apart everywhere except where the ownership class lives. Infrastructure that is not company owned will fail along with education and healthcare and any social services.
Bring back the company towns and factories! The good old days where children can work in factories and mines!

Does this actually exist in the US? I live here and I’ve never seen it.
Early on in the industrial age. Not so much anymore.
Big sad
Amazon is trying to bring it back. So are other weird little companies that tie themselves to churches, or private prisons or both.
I’m from District 8, where we produce all the textiles.
