      All of the top jobs have nothing to do with democracy.

      They sort out who gets what job behind closed doors.  We saw this when the current session started.

      The electoral college isn't horse-trading behind closed doors.    Each congressional district has equal weight in the electoral college.

      I'm curious, do you actively promote your country surrendering its sovereignty to the EU?  It would save you guys a lot of money if you got rid of your national government and let your beloved EU have direct rule.

        your unfounded conspiracy theories aside, this just doesnt make any sense. why would you think anyone would do that? i would have to assume the alt right realise that would be ridiculous.

          I honestly believe that you have no actual clue what is going on in the world.

          Do a bit of research about the horse trading for the top jobs in the EU.

          The citizens of the EU only elect one of several bodies of the EU.

            i honestly think that only an idiot would think any country would voluntarily cease to exist as a nation.

            do you elect the people in the energy department or secretary of state? no. dont be ridiculous and say that eu memmbers must elects all bodies in eu, because that would be ridiculous.

              We, the people, have no say over 75% of the EU.

              Do you even know that the EU wants to be a superstate?  Do you even pay attention to anything?

              I bet you only know what your state TV tells you.

              Its the same with every "state TV" they are very liberal and dishonest.  The BBC is extremely anti Brexit.

                what do you even mean? no say of 75% sounds very good to me. i wouldnt for example want idiots from the uk deciding the future for sweden, and when you leave the eu there will be much fewer racists in the eu parliment so thats a positive thing with brexit.

                by the way, i realized that you really dont understand how eu and democracy works.

                here are two easy to understand videos (not from the tv if you think that makes it easier to believe):

                Youtube Video

                  Funny how you call us racists for not wanting to be part of the mostly WHITE EU.

                  LOL, I clearly know more about it than you.

                  You talk about democracy, but clearly you have no idea what goes on in the EU.  For example, you hate the electoral college, but have no issue with pissant countries having a larger say in the EU than other countries based on per capita.  Of course, you love that because you are from one of those pissant countries.

                  Again, except for the EU Parliament, we have no say in anything at the EU.  The Parliament is very weak as well.

                    rage all you want. i assume you didnt watch the videos which is a shame because theyre very good. youre just showing how little you know of the parliment if you think its anything close to the antidemocratic electoral college in america.

                      How are small countries having more representation per capita than larger countries, "democracy"??    That's just like what you are whining about with the electoral college.

                      According to you, every vote should count equally, except in the EU.

                      In fact, it's getting worse with each new term of the EU.

                          Just keep deluding yourself that you support democracy.  You only support "democracy" that suits your agenda.

                          In the EU, small countries have a higher rate of MEPs per capita than large countries.  Therefore, not all votes are equal.

                          You need to educate yourself.  Well, you're a liberal, so your feelings are your facts.

                            not exactly, feelings arent really the same as understanding and knowledge.

                              Please don't try telling me you know anything about anything, except scream "racist" alt-right" and "neo-nazi" at people who you disagree with.

                                Then, stop acting like a racist from the alt-right who worship the neo-nazi. You don't even say your are not a racist. You write things, accept at least the fact you are a racist. But I guess you prefer to bully people and victimize yourself to avoid being aware of your own mistakes. We know the drill.

                                Racism :

                                "the belief that people's qualities are influenced by their race and that the members of other races are not as good as the members of your own, or the resulting unfair treatment of members of other races:
                                The authorities are taking steps to combat/fight/tackle racism in schools.
                                The report made it plain that institutional racism (= racism in all parts of an organization) is deep-rooted in this country."

                                Xenophobia :

                                "Extreme dislike or fear of foreigners, their customs, their religions, etc."

                                  LOL, you people really are comical.

                                  Since I won''t kiss your ass and believe your liberal bullshit, I'm "literally worse than Hitler".

                                  I have to worship Jonathan "jessica" Yuniv and his predatory bullshit or I am a transphobe.   I have to worship Justin "Riley" Dennis and force lesbians to suck his female cock or I'm a transphobe.

                                  I have to believe your bullshit that the quran doesn't say what it says, despite my having read the quaran in it''s entirety or I'm a racist and xenophobe, even though there are white westerners who are muslim.

                                  I have to ignore the very real hatred muslims, whom liberals worship, have for me for being gay.   Im a piece of shit in liberal eyes for not liking those that would throw me off the tallest building in the city or stone me to death, simply for living.

                                  I have to ignore the massive anti-semitism from liberals in their absolute worship of muslims.

                                  Yeah, you are the good guy and I've the evil bastard.

                                  The last sentence was sarcasm, BTW.
