American democracy has it's flaws but at least it's protecting rights for free speech. I'd happily live in a state with free speech rather than some 1984 nation with slightly fair representation of votes.
Basic rights are order of magnitude more important than everything else. Good luck supporting candidates you like when you're censored.
- Twixes 7y agoI agree that free speech is important, but unless you're openly a nazi, you're free to run for any office – and it's been that way since we had that big problem with nazis in the 30s and 40s which resulted in millions of dead. That left a really bad taste.
