Aren't you the person who said that they need a court case in order to believe something is true?

About that "be self-critical" advice...

They punted. Offered no decision. And no, that's not the same thing as ruling on the merits, if you know what that means.

Read a book on vote fraud. ANY book about it. By ANY author. Written at ANY time.

Mail in ballots are *THE* best vehicle for fraud. This isn't disputed by anyone who understands the issue. You'd appear to be much smarter on the internet if you stopped saying things like the above. Sincere advice.

There's only one person in this thread who didn't understand what you meant, and she still doesn't, even after having it literally spelled out for her.

She reminds me of my oldest son. When he's wrong about something, he'll dig in his heels and refuse to accept it, even after having direct evidence put in front of him. He offers wild and literally unbelievable explanations for mundane mistakes, instead of just owning them. Difference between them is that in most cases, he'll eventually apologize for being an ass.

As Yuri Bezmenov would say, "That's the tragedy of ideological subversion."

aka-hey we made it easier to vote by mail in the middle of a pandemic because we want to save lives is "using it as a political weapon"

Voting isn't supposed to be THAT easy
Says...who? Ahh...right, its about the "right" people voting huh?

There's supposed to be a system in place that alllows for verification of people voting LEGALLY.
Actually oddly no, its left up to the states. Remember states rights?

Quote:
Of people being verified as being American citizens.
Again-see states rights. But good news, most states care about this, and non citizens voting is incredibly rare.

Quote:
Of not voting twice or in two or more locations.
You mean like Trump told people too? Turns out that despite Trumps attempts to encourage people to vote multiple times, most systems in place caught the issue.

Of actually being alive.
Cool story bro.

That's why many countries don't allow mail in ballots.
yawn. Many countries dont have massive databases of its citizens, or even id. your point misses the real reason many dont have mail in ballots.

Nope.
The courts said 100 times none of that happened.

What did happen was your candidate lost. He wasn't as good as you thought he was.

Don't worry about it. In 4 years things will be a lot more normal than they are now simply because Trump isn't there to keep generating the crazy 24/7/365 like he was for the past 4 years.

We should start our own list of cancelled words. Sure, they won't get removed from the dictionary or dem msm or retailers won't report on it or remove ads with the word but who cares. Let's just start our own list of words republicans refuse to use and add some words. Distribute and lets get together and fight back on this. We can have our own language and let them adapt.

Biden doesn't want us to say China Virus. Anytime we want to say Virus, let's add China in front of it.

Anytime we want to say Biden, let's call him Dementia Joe or maybe even Idiot.

Anytime we want to talk about Kamallaa, let's spell her name wrong. She hates that.

Any words we can cancel?

Let's find ways to fight back on the crazy.
The goal is to destroy all of our institutions, I’d start there by not helping them carry that out. I think the main thing to do right this second is for anyone that wants to know why there’s even a cancel culture to look into Critical Race Theory and how it plays out into the cancel culture. I think the liberal left will join forces against the illiberal left if they understand the goals of the Crits. Otherwise CRT is a ratcheting ideology that doesn’t give a single inch and takes any inch not guarded over as if it meant the whole country depends on it.

So that’s what I see. Cancel culture isn’t some random set of events and people that just happens to be taking some of your favorite past times away, it’s a calculated attempt to undermine your institutions one by one until there’s no cultural hegemony to keep the revolution from being ushered in.

To be clear, are you saying you trust your own opinion over the results of court cases when it comes to legal matters?

With respect, you seem to have missed the point. Back to the original topic. What can republican do to change things? Admit they lost a legal election, as was proven in court. Be self-critical. Realize the GOP's platform isn't attractive to most people. Work to put up candidates for election that are more aligned with what this country wants and needs.

And no, I do not trust my personal opinions over the results of court cases in legal matters. Further, if the party I back loses an election, I don't make up conspiracy theories about fraud. I think about what my party can change to improve the candidates we put up for the next election. This is actually pretty straight forward.
