Sadly the vote of a moron counts just the same as the vote of someone who knows whats up.

So you do want votes limited then? If you could reinvent the system what would it look like? Or is your only criteria really that you don't like it when people vote in a different way to you?

Haha.

I even cut and pasted the dictionary definition of xenophobia in my other post, therefore conjecture concerning what I consider xenophobia to be is futile. It is what I said it is.

People like me? Who is that exactly?

I love the rules of democracy. Try reading "How Democracies Die" by Levistky and Ziblatt and then come back to me concerning the rules of democracy, and how Donald Trump has broken every single one.

Elections are not democratic when they are predicated on lies and mistruths, which the idiotic plebs in this world lap up like their precious cheap beer, sadly not smart enough to figure out they are being duped like the suckers that they are.

Of course we cannot change the fundamental rules of democracy.

Each vote counts the same, matov.

However on the topic of Brexit, I dont think it should have been decided by Joe Q Public. Career economists with phds had no clue about what it would do to the economy, how is Jimmy from Crewe supposed to make an intelligent decision on it, without falling foul of racist or misleading propaganda from Farage and co painted on the side of a bus, and creaming in his pants over the word "sovereignty" which he hadnt heard before 2016.

If we are talking the US election, the topic of this thread, then I am sure you understand how the electoral college works, in terms of the weight of an individual vote.

Clinton, the most unpopular candidate for decades, still won the popular vote by over 3 million.

Once again your spidey sense is way off here, Pete.

Not all brexiteers are racists.

However the person I was replying to, who said its quite alright and natural/not illegal to be a xenophobe, clearly is...

Xenophobia is the bastion of the small minded.

Try to expand your mind a little, and realize that what country someone comes from doesn't define them.

Foreigners are people from other countries.

I like how we are debating what a word means, which is listed in the dictionary:

noun

an aversion or hostility to, disdain for, or fear of foreigners, people from different cultures, or strangers: Xenophobia and nationalism can be seen as a reaction to the rise of globalization.

fear or dislike of the customs, dress, etc., of people who are culturally different from oneself:Learning a foreign language can help to overcome xenophobia.
