    I signed the petition but I had zero belief it would actually result in anything.

    We don’t actually live in a democracy, that’s just something they tell us while they do whatever the bloody hell they want.

      reminds me of my philosophy teacher arguing against someone because my teacher said that we don’t live in a democracy, but a lot of people disagreed.

      i still remember the look of disapointment in their face, since they had just told us the definition of democracy😭

        I love people who say “we don’t live in a democracy because we live in a republic.” Yeah, we don’t live in a republic either, bitch.
