Nope my argument has been solid and consistent for weeks and you've done nothing to even remotely touch any premise of it. 3 hours ago, CdnFox said: all people have equal opportunity to vote. The free part usually refers to people not being compelled to vote for one person or another. A. Yep these are ethical standards for voting. I see you simply don't know what the word "ethics" means (I'm shocked). You should go look it up and expand your vocabulary. B. There are naturally a lot more ethical standards beyond these to a fair election. For example, counting the votes correctly, not changing the voting laws right before an election, having a secret ballot, outlawing the buying of votes, having impartial election bodies, having an open nomination process, etc etc etc. 3 hours ago, CdnFox said: Oh look More of your typical method-- to straight up lie about sone specific claim and then predictably refuse to support it with even one fact.

Your argument hasn't been solid or consistent for seconds never mind weeks About the closest you came to an argument other than just electoral College bad was trying to claim that it's not a democracy. And of course that got shot down right away. Now I don't think you even have a point or an argument, I think you just pissy about losing and you're just rattling on hoping something will stick at some point Quote A. Yep these are ethical standards for voting. I see you simply don't know what the word "ethics" means (I'm shocked). You should go look it up and expand your vocabulary. LOL it's not even remotely close to being an 'ethical' standard. So i see we're back to you creating fake definitions to try to suit your derangements Free and fair is an objective not subjective thing. It's not ethical, it's functional. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised you don't know what ethics are A. Yep these are ethical standards for voting. I see you simply don't know what the word "ethics" means (I'm shocked).

For example, counting the votes correctly, not changing the voting laws right before an election, having a secret ballot, outlawing the buying of votes, having impartial election bodies, having an open nomination process, etc etc etc. Those aren't ethics. Those are mechanics. Those are simply conditions necessary to fulfill the definition of people electing the leadership. It's like saying that because you have to light a fire to start cooking your meal a fire is ethical. It's just not how it works Quote More of your typical method-- to straight up lie about sone specific claim and then predictably refuse to support it with even one fact. That's what you say when you can't refute facts or argue the point LOL do you think this is going well for you kid? Like do you think you DON"T look like a retarded goon who just flails wildly?

That has been my only argument and it stands unrefuted. And for that matter it's not even a controversial assertion. It's like I'm arguing that the earth is round and you're responding by saying it's not round because your yard is flat. You on the other hand have no argument in this thread other than to reflexively disagree with me for no apparent reason and with no relevant facts.
