    Most in the US are already pretty tired of it. I don’t expect it to last another 50 years, but good luck trying to change it now. It still requires a constitutional amendment, and right now, we’re fighting with a party that has half the votes and wants to drag us into a corporatocracy.

    Let’s solve that fucking problem first before we move on to constitutional amendments!

      I uh. Do you think the democrats are going to get rid of it?

      Neither party has any reason to remove the electoral college until it benefits them.

      And why must we invent safer sounding terms in place of late stage capitalism.

      America is ruled by the bourgeoise and will be for a long time
