The inherent flaw with a democracy is that it's reliant upon a largely ignorant and stupid populace to choose their leaders.

And the reason it is used, is that even ignorant and dumb people (which is only some of them) choosing their own leaders, though they sometimes make mistakes (see "Obama", "Clinton" etc.) do it better on average than any other method of choosing leaders. This has been historically true for millennia.

There was a time when we could hate each other's ideas without hating each other. Nowadays, if you so much as mildly disagree with one of the finer details of a person's political view, they are vilified to the farthest extremes. The reason our democracy is under attack is because we aren't being a democracy worthy people anymore. We're devolving into wild savages who can only be ruled by a chest thumping brute. And we wonder how we end up with a chest thumping brute for a President.

The question is, will you be part of the solution, or part of the problem?

Everything you said sounds right to me, but your title does exactly what you say you don't like.
Wolf failed to be funny last night, but you really think it was all about hate? I think Ropey wrote her jokes, is all.

Who is Michelle Wolf? What is it you're ranting about?

Celebrity Roasts should have pretend meanness and viciousness that is funny, but she was not pretending, left wingers are drowning in their own hate

 

[John Shaw]

On the one hand, the jokes weren't funny.

On the other hand, she is basically just talking the same way Trump talks about people. He attacks them personally, attacks their looks, and says outrageous, shocking things for publicity. The only difference is, Trump lies more.

So can you really criticize her for doing the same thing that Trump does, as a Trump supporter? She is just following the president's example.

Immigrants continue to be cruelly deported.
PR still struggles w/o power.
Americans continue to be murdered by high-powered assault rifles.
Public education is under attack.
So is the health of our air, water & people.

But what they’re really angry about is a mean comedian.

Illegal immigrants should be deported.

AM or PM?

AD.

Not B.E.C. AM?

Since the US has only been around since oh let's say 1790.......And then there was no democracy then, on the federal level....England was a democracy for a couple of years after the execution of the King and the takeover by the Puritans during the Civil War in the 16th century..

There was clearly a lot of brutality under this British Capitalist Democracy, they pushed on massive famine genocides in India, and Ireland, many millions perished.

Oh, and did I mention Hitler was elected in by Democracy?

Like Trump.

I don't particularly like Trump, perhaps only a bit more than Hillary.

However, what did Trump do that's so bad, thus far?

I will admit Trump runs his mouth off way too much, but when it comes to foreign policy, thus far nothing too tragic has happened.

Wait until October, a few weeks before November.
Trump and the GOP ended healthcare subsidies. In October, we find out how many more than the 20 millions who are losing healthcare that we know about so far. With that many people losing their healthcare, who knows how much that cost will go up on everyone else. Most of those losing are Trump voters. Is that justice?

He hasn't helped the 100,000 in Flint whose water is dirty.

Millions in Puerto Rico still have no electricity.

He has made enemies of our friends.

The US is no longer the leader of the free world.

He has lied to the American people.

He called Nazi's "good people".

He slandered women he assaulted.

The list is endless.

Wrong. Her being able to publicly speak the truth when Republicans and Trump want to throw their political opponents into prison shows why our democracy is working. Duh!
Did that really have to be explained?
And when you have a president who says he grabs ***** whether women want it or not, that only some Mexicans aren't rapists, lies constantly and calls everyone names and even wants to throw his political opponents in jail, not to mention unprotected sex with a porn star, then we have problems bigger than a comedy routine from a woman who was telling the truth.

CNN disagrees with you.

Of course. After what she said about CNN. No one was left off the hook.

Democracy is over-rated, because a lot of people are dumb.

Its over rated because people have a flag stuck in their eyes. People all over the world fail to see that their governments are utter and complete pieces of shit.The most evil of the lot are the breadwinners and " dictators" ,so-called "leaders" and the dumbest of the lot run around in a circus suit with pop pows enforcing anything they are told to enforce, be it right, or utterly wrong.
These are the socialist meatheads of the world whos lives are based on sucking a govt tit, who claim to be fighting socialism.The ones incapable, unqualified to enter or completely stupid become cops. The ones who cant handle that find work at Whackenoff....or Dairy Queen(assistant mgr trainee)
Guess who pays for this stupid shit ? Yeah. Rednecks who cant afford to patch the hole in the roof of that thar trailer.They could soak their Bangledeshi made flags in urethane and plug the holes with them but that would be " a disgrace to ol glory"( while their wife is at a glory HOLE ,earning money for a new set of used tires.)
MAGA

Since when have we lived in a democracy? I would say at least 90 percent of those people at that gathering were liberals. That is what is destroying the country.

90% of Republicans are white.
There was a higher percentage of whites at Trump's rally.

The dumbing down off Americans, both party's, reduced to the level of the school yard. where are the adults??? so hard not to get drawn into this s- - t storm.

Yes, I would blame anyone who follows his example. Everyone should know better.

If you are a Trump supporter, though? That's just the Trump way of doing things. Everything is crude. Everything is personal. There is nothing sacred, as far as Trump is concerned. So any Trump supporter who criticizes her METHOD is a hypocrite, as far as I'm concerned. If they accuse her of being unfunny, then fine.

Michelle Wolf COMPLETE REMARKS at 2018 White House Correspondents' Dinner (C-SPAN)


Man, them were just some really crappy jokes. More bombs than a B-52.

I don't feel dumber. Just hard to find someone speaking my mind for me. We just have to work a little harder until the current Pres is no longer turning our democracy into a big joke. It won't be long.
