Democracy is on the line—and on the ballot—in 2022. As we continue to fight for voting rights and to protect our elections in Congress now, we also look ahead to the stakes of the 2022 elections: Abortion rights, voting rights, LGBTQ rights, consumer rights, and so much more depend on our ability to elect principled, tenacious Democrats and hold and expand our majorities in the House and Senate.

Isn't it interesting that Democrats want to protect and expand rights for everybody? But Republicans are all about restricting or eliminating rights. I guess the reason is you can't have a decent fascist dictatorship when everybody has a lot of freedom.

I see Democrats supporting mandates and coercion which take away individual rights, and republicans apposing these mandates.
"Don't listen to what they say, watch what they do" as someone smarter than me said.
American's need to get over themselves. Democracy is nowhere near on the line because of Jan 6th events, it was in deep shit way before that. I can pinpoint the exact day, when the Patriot Act was enacted, removing the need for congress/ accountability.
There were protests where the American only democratic process (handover of govt/ power) was challenged. It held and the status quo was maintained and defended. That is democracy in action. Protests and opposing views to reach a consensus is democracy.

Yes, the so-called "Patriot" Act was a big mistake.

@mischl The biggest.

So many regard cannabis DECRIMINALIZATION to be a comical topic. But thousands await trial incarcerated for non violent cannabis possession because they can't make bail. Then there are the convictions. It is as if cannabis is a tool by which to imprison men of color predominantly. Lose the right to vote is convicted. Disenfranchisement by cannabis possession. Get to the polls in numbers that can not be contested with any credibility. Tho it matters not to the MAGAs, it matters to history & our posterity. Viva America! The light of the world. Let us not lose her to the barbarians.

Actually, if you ask a republican on the street, quite a few of them favor fair voting. The politicians are fully engaged in fostering fascism.

Divide and conquer, kept the British Empire going for centuries.

It isn’t “interesting”; it is pitiful. All we can do is volunteer to counteract their measures. Become a Voter Registrar in your state and go into poor neighborhoods to register voters. Volunteer to drive poor people to vote.

Perhaps a good idea to not just register them, but talk with them to hear their concerns then agitate that these concerns be met, if you agree the concerns are valid.

The reason they don't vote is because they are disenfranchised.

It's all about power.
