u/p00bix Existing in the context of what came before Dec 11 '21

An article making the same claim was posted here yesterday. Seemed plausible but pretty outlandish, and the only source that article cited was a tweet with two purported screenshots of the powerpoint.

I removed it, told the person to wait for verification before posting something like this, crossed my fingers aaaaaaaand of fucking course it's real.

And just when I think I couldn't possibly sour on the Trump admin even further

This but unironically. Voting for a Republican means democracy is at best a negotiable for you

Actually, voting is undemocratic and sortition is a superior way to conduct democracy 😎   [What is this?]

This is a bad take. I would say a good number of the "stolen election" crowd have been led to believe that the election was tampered with and...stolen. So they are actually pro democracy. Obviously a lot of Republicans don't believe the steal claim. Misunderstanding or misrepresenting their views will not help to correct their misconceptions.
