oooh the Silent Majorty stands with us!

yeah, sure

meanwhile, the actual majority is sleeping though this. Just like they sleep through every election cycle. If you could somehow ran on “oh, was that today? I had no idea” you would be the eternal incumbent

I think in a true democracy if the majority of people don’t vote, the election needs to be run again with different candidates

But the US told me that the Soviet Union was an evil anti-democracy where no one has a say!

Post-Soviet states inherited it, but as far as I know all of them removed this option since.

In China that would result in the election having to be redone at a lower level lol[1]

  1. allegedly, I haven’t found much text about chinese democracy, but as far as I can tell that’s sort of how it works. Same way it works in an unspecified african country I cannot recall the name of lol ↩︎
