There is no we here. I don't do this and most people on this forum don't either.

There is a corrupt govenrment, that is currently in power, giving perks to corporations and cartels, and fvcking us over in the process.

It is we who elect the corrupt government. The last major non-COVID-19 fiscal legislation passed in the USA was a blatant redistribution of tax burden from the rich to the middle class. It was called the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

Republics are democracies. Another name for republic is representative democracy. Whether you elect the President directly or indirectly the people are still voting in an election.

No sir you are 100% wrong:



What we have witnessed is a common false dichotomy fallacy. @RickTheToad is essentially arguing that a Chevrolet Camaro is not actually a car because it is a coupe. Whether the democracy is structured as direct or representative republic, the people still exercise their power of self-governance through voting in an election.

Wrong as usual, but I guess that's okay for you. No worries.. Carry on in your little pipe dream.

Is the United States a Republic or a Democracy?

The United States of America is governed as a federal republic, and therefore some argue that the U.S. is not a democracy. Learn more about the government of the US.

America Is a Republic, Not a Democracy

Contrary to popular belief, America is not, nor was it meant to be, a pure democracy. America is a republic. Nevertheless, more and more voices today are calling for America to become a direct democracy.

The problem is that we don't have a government of The People for The People. We have a government of the elites, for the elites that is showing itself to be very authoritarian under the current guy.

It's the people in government who are responsible for this. Gas is suddenly two bucks a gallon more because the government gave away our energy independence to OPEC. That isn't in the best interests of the people
It's not just the tax burden, it's the price of everyday goods and the size of your savings

Real socialism is achieved when the bankrupt government has annhilated your savings, your arms and your rights.

Authoritarian would be getting impeached twice for trying to keep oneself in power against the will of the people.

Gas prices are supply and demand. That is literally the opposite of socialism.

With @EyeBRollin, it's standard (and entertaining) on the forum.

Overpopulation is a myth. The global birth rate is barely above replacement. It’s far below replacement among developed countries.

The problem is the modern society has evolved to create a system that rewards the financial system at the expense of producing tangible goods. Wealthier countries simply don’t build anything.

Humans consume and waste way too much resources, just look at how much water is used for cheap clothing and all the microplastics that pollute the sea as a result.

Only 3% of all land on earth has little or no human footprint, more than 50% of earths biomass has gone extinct only in the last few decades.

Fortunately water and biomass are both renewable.
