Reporting posts will be seen as breaking the rules of expldoing-heads. Nazism is not allowed, so do not report any posts which you disagree with or I will block the bigoted authoritarian fascist cunts doing this. Bruh

MODERATORS
The government's authority used to be derived from the people. The people who developed the republic never could have imagined the immense bureaucratic superstate that exists and overrides the will of the people and often the will of the elected officials.
If it was the will of the people laws that the people want would pass. Like legalizing weed. It's mostly the will of the corporations because they fund the politicians. There is basically zero correlation between what the people want and whether a law is passed but a very high correlation between what the corporations want and what laws are passed.
For example, vaccine corporations having zero liability for injuries. Take a popular vote and see if that would pass.
Touche.
If the government was following the will of the people, then daylight savings time would be a distant memory.
An even better example. Daylight savings is retarded. It is always good bread for programmers when they change time. All those scheduling programs got to build that in.
