MelodiousFunk,

Most people don’t even understand how our current electoral system works but they don’t seem to be raising a stink about it lol

And many of the ones that have no clue think they understand. But regardless, the entire concept of American Exceptionalism that gets hammered into us from birth means that whatever we have now is “the right way.” Changing things challenges that concept, which many have internalized as part of their core identity. Which… gestures vaguely at the overall political landscape …yeah.
