When over 1/3 pf the population and one of two major political parties believe/claim elections are fraudulent when they aren't, we are done.
We have never seen this many Americans be so easily convinced to lose faith in our elections. Even in the middle of the Civil War we don't read about major politicians resorting to attacking election integrity just because they lost.
It's only a matter of time be for elections to become meaningless. I'm thinking within this century.
Thanks all you Big Lie believers!

When that many people are convinced based on nothing more than the word of a sore loser, it's only a matter of time before claiming fraud becomes the norm when when an election is lost.We're not done yet. But we are in peril. Right-wing propaganda has poisoned millions of minds in this country and convinced them so thoroughly of so many lies that it will be very difficult to untangle them.
We must vote like our lives depend on it, because they do.
Not time to give up. We're living the first draft of history. History books 20 years from now will describe the big lie in far different terms than it does now.When over 1/3 pf the population and one of two major political parties believe/claim elections are fraudulent when they aren't, we are done.

I think you mean 2/3s of the population and both parties. Or did you forget about 2000, 2004 and 2016
When did Al Gore incite an invasion of the Capitol?
The op said "believe/claim elections are fraudulent"
Gore conceded after multiple legal challenges in a razor-thin election. When did trump concede the election that he clearly lost?
The difference is that some individuals (wrongly, IMO) thought the 2000 election was stolen. The Democratic party as whole did not push the false narrative just because their leader was a sore loser.Overly dramatic. I thought (and still do) that the 2000 election was stolen by the Supreme Court. I know many fellow democrats felt the same way.
I do feel as though the country's leadership has failed many Americans for most if not all of the 21st century. Inept leadership which lead us to a shrinking middle class is more to be feared.
Last week I think.
Regardless the democrat party has called the last 3 elections they lost fraudulent in some capacity. Neither party respects democracy when they lose.
It's more than the Big Lie itself. It's the fact that so many were so easily convinced. You would think that Americans would have to be really, really convinced that the heart of our democratic system was compromised. The word of a man like DT shouldn't even be a drop in the bucket toward enough evidence.Not time to give up. We're living the first draft of history. History books 20 years from now will describe the big lie in far different terms than it does now.
The problem is Democrats are people as well. Democratic politicians are just as slimy as Republican ones. If they see that attacking elections is a way to the top, they'll do it too.For righties. Democrats cannot fall into that trap; we must only claim rigged elections when they are actually rigged.
It's never been this systematic though.I think you mean 2/3s of the population and both parties. Or did you forget about 2000, 2004 and 2016

I'm talking about it being common practice in future.Which Democratic presidential candidate incited an invasion of the US Capitol?

When almost 2/3 of the population, one of the two major political parties and a portion of the other believe/claim that elections are not fraudulent when they are, we are done.When over 1/3 pf the population and one of two major political parties believe/claim elections are fraudulent when they aren't, we are done.
So how do you conclude the Republican party as a whole has pushed a false narrative?The difference is that some individuals (wrongly, IMO) thought the 2000 election was stolen. The Democratic party as whole did not push the false narrative just because their leader was a sore loser.

Bullshit. He didn't concede. The rest of your post is equally false.Last week I think. Regardless the democrat party has called the last 3 elections they lost fraudulent in some capacity. Neither party respects democracy when they lose.
