Like it was still 52 - 48 even if you completly remove the City.
Fascinating. It's almost as if square footage doesn't get the right to vote, people do

This is literally heresy to many Amerikkkans, prepare to be burned at the stake.
Not the only thing they want to burn me at the stake for
AmeriKKKans are anti-:beanis-salute:
I’ve literally been told that only land owning males should be allowed to vote. Take one guess who they were and where they lived. Yep, white male with a lot of land out in the middle of nowhere.
Unfortunately not the case in America. The electoral college exists explicitly to prevent people from having more power than miles of empty land.
Let the land speak.
“Not getting”
these people know what they’re doing. They choose to engage in these obviously false narratives because it lets them be part of an in-group. I’m being pedantic but I think the distinction matters.
the professional ones know. some random guy is 50-50 or better to be illiterate
I think it goes beyond that. They want to go back to the days when only land owners could vote.
Sooooo no Furry Martha Stewart Pornography website?
Buddy you're on it
Martha Stu-owo-art
Store bought beanis is fine if you want to skip making your own
One of America's greatest mysteries: why do people in dense population centers vote Democrat while vast empty stretches of unoccupied land always seems to vote Republican?
Cosmopolitan values of international finance capital vs agribusiness/oil/mAdE iN aMeRiCa hogs
I am once again calling for a Reverse Down To The Countryside movement
"Farmers" who exploit immigrant labor, country music stars, and suburban jet ski dealership owners must be made to work as baristas in poor urban neighborhoods to put them in touch with America's working class
Evil Pol Pot be like /j
Brainwashing and propaganda to make them truly belive they're God's (second) chosen (after Isreal of course).
I think a big part is that rural areas in the US are underserved and therefore don’t trust the government to function properly. They’d rather the government exist as little as possible (or at least tax them as little as possible)
Conservatives not understanding landmasses dont vote 
well thankfully in the US there are a lot of laws that basically gives land the right to vote
Effectively, that’s how the senate works
to be fair, land is property/wealth and wealth has the biggest seat at the table.
the people who look at all that land and say crap like that are just confessing their ideology.
Republican finds out the real minority taking up all the resources were the friends he made along the way 
We should start including all of the ocean floor in these maps to really hammer home how little of the vote is being counted.
if we count land in the metaverse the libertarians will easily get the 90% of the vote they deserve 
I speak for the trees and the trees say:
Kill all brown people, down with trans. Also we need more data centers.
Also we need more data centers.
Masochistic trees
This happens every election everywhere in this shithole country and I'm fascinated every time
Cousin humpers always wanna pretend like the trees and bugs should get a vote. When they're not demanding that everyone else subsidize their life as a hermit in the middle of nowhere by bringing all the advantages of modern society to their shithole jerkwaters free of charge.
BTW I hate this. The way we've brought the tech into the wilderness. How everywhere has to be modern now. For a long time cities were the place that had industry and tech and the boonies were some dude in a cabin who didn't even have electricity. THAT WAS GOOD! You had a choice. Get tired of modern life? Go live in the middle of nowhere and milk cows or whatever for awhile. Now everywhere is the same. You could be in Nebraska and they'll ask you to do the application online because they don't take resumes in person anymore. It's just so boring.
this sucks and mending the rural/urban quality of life disparity is a good thing actually
I think you are mistaking me wanting rural life to be different with wanting it to be worse. I maybe worded things in a confusing way. I'm not advocating for rural areas not to have electricity again that was an old timey example. I just think it should be different. Simpler. Like think solarpunk. back gardens. clothes on a line. a few animals. etc. The issue now is that rural areas are forced to basically strive for the same ways of making a living as city dwellers because everything is so expensive. You can't live a simple life and relax if a tiny shack is 150k usd and you have a yearly tax on the place you live, and you need a car to drive to the massive big box store that charges the same prices for food as youd see in the city. And then the pervasiveness of tech is a huge issue.
Like yeah you'd have less of the convenience services, and you should, like doordash, uber, etc. But it should also be much cheaper to just live a simple life out there.
I'd also push back on the past having been worse in rural areas. Like the time periods we are talking about where rural areas rarely had electricity were the same ones where cities had shit in the streets and smog like crazy. I'd rather make do without power personally.
One ~~man~~ square metre, one vote
Metre? We ain't like those sissy euros. Real patriots only measure in units derived from the anatomy of dead British monarchs!
Got get me a little cabin in one of those dark green bits.
I've seen this happen every US election that I've been alive. Every time the CHUDs don't understand (or refuse to understand) that people vote, not land. Though I suppose they would want to go back to a time when only wealthy white landowning males could vote, so I guess it checks out?
