Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

We need the electoral college because without it the ignorant masses might elect an dangerously unqualified reactionary demagogue they saw on a reality TV show.
Thank goodness that will never happen
Well maybe it'd happen once. but certainly not twice. Right?
That sounds like the plot of Idiocracy.
That'd be insane if it actually happened. Could you imagine!?
Don't worry, there are more than sufficient checks and balances in place to make sure that kind of situation could never occur!
Stop. This was one comment too far. . . we aren't currently living idiocracy /s. I have chicken thighs from may. I'm safe
I almost missed the sarcasm lol. Woooosh
🤣
