I'm not asking the Voat userbase to become Democrats, but can we all agree to give the GOP shit when they deserve it?

We've been wanting to get the neo cons and traitors to our country out for years.

You have to be more organized around primary time.
Order in which people pay attention to things:
Presidential
Presidential primary
Congress
Local
Local primary
Congressional primary

Democrats suck on many issues, but mostly they act like Republican Lite. Internet privacy, at least in terms of private industry, is one thing they're obviously better on. Of course, they aren't against the NSA looking at your shit, but at least under democratic rule you wouldn't be at risk of having your internet history leaked to your employer.

I don't think better. Obama had 8 years, 2 of which he had a majority and he could have passed roles to entrench privacy Rights online. Instead he did nothing and appointed Wheeler (who ended up being pretty good, but was a board member of Comcast for years).

Democrats have already been spying on us for over a decade, just look at google and facebook.

The intention is to put the entire establishment into a mass grave.
I'm curious about the Dems. Did they know the Pugs had the numbers and so put on a false united front? There's no way in shit every one of those Obama cock-suckers are pro-privacy.

Yeah, I was skeptical about that too. When this shit happened under Obama and these types of bills were being pushed, weren't there democrats who voted for this shit? Too weird for nearly 200 democrats to be unified, especially considering how little they care about our privacy..

its time to form a new political party. One thats in the center of it all and one that refuses to take the big money decision. Its either that or we the people rise up and refuse to recognize the legitimacy of the current laws of the government. But we all know what that would mean.
