FUCK DEMOCRACY

[unearthingbone]

completely agreed. especially bring "democracy" to other countries in the name of "crushing terrorism," when, really, we're crushing culture and innocent civilians.

i miean im glad its obama, im glad for you guys but....democracy...*sigh

Young people ALWAYS could have cast the deciding votes. They just never did. We have the worst turnout records of any demographic group in the country. Obama didn't "give" us the chance to cast deciding votes, he just gave us sexy cover shots on famous magazines.

Yeah, I still voted for the guy, even though I'm fed up with this whole system... what can I say? John McCain and Sarah Palin terrify the shit out of me.

[unearthingbone]

you're right. young people have always had the right and RESPONSIBILITY to vote. the apathy of our generation frustrates the shit out of me -- we only get involved in something when it directly involves us, and usually it's something fluffy or useless, like facebook's new fucking layout or some shit like that

Make no mistake... it might be an American election, but in the UK everyone is buzzing with anticipation. Whoever becomes president is effectively the most powerful leader in the world... scary business!

Capitalism is the only thing worth wvoting against.
