Reply to comment by dravik in Voters can erase racist wording in Alabama Constitution by motayba

>You can call anything racist with this logic.

Yeah. Because most things ARE racist...our nation is built on a foundation of systemic racism.

Oh no, not funding for teachers, abortion policy and tax changes! How horrible that must be! 😂🤣. God conservatives are such fucking clowns.

In a democracy you have to build political support for your policies to get it passed. Regardless of the specific policies, trying to dishonestly end run the democratic process by lying to the electorate is antithetical to our system of government.

You're a conservative, my guy....your party is still claiming Trump won the 2020 election....you don't get to complain about anyone else "lying to the electorate" or being dishonest. Especially on such flimsy grounds as "they proposed something for me to vote on and I didn't educate myself on what I was voting on....you're just a fuckin moron then...that's not on the politicians.

The Alabama voters did educate themselves on the proposed changes, and they felt their opinion on actual policies was more important than symbolic changes to wording that had no legal impact.

I'm not sure why you think a federal election controversy is relevant to a single state's policy discussion. Do you understand the federalist organization of our country?
