      If you don’t want me pointing out that you’re using the same argument here that Republicans use when they’re defending voter suppression, select a different argument than the one Republicans use when they’re defending voter suppression.

        It’s not an argument, it’s a factual statement. There is no debate here. I stated the fact that we are a republic, not a democracy. Am I happy with it? No. So I support it? No.

        It’s not an argument. It’s not a debate. It’s not a defense. It’s just a fact.

        You interpreting this as anything else is entirely your fault.

      That’s the point of Political discussion, to grow your arguments and to learn from mistakes. It isn’t to convince someone to chance their position, that is impossible.
