To avoid civil war? We're dealing with whether or not we're a Democracy here. At this point so many idiots have been inundated with "Biden is prey-elect" that they might take Trump claiming victory as a coup and not a counter-coup. Rerunning the elections properly and securely would both help to restore faith in our electoral system while also possibly help our down ballot situation in the house and senate.

Eh your both right. This election is deciding mob rule (democracy) vs. America's natural state (Constitutional Republic). SCOTUS has already flouted the Constitution, so... not looking good for the preservation of our Union.

SCOTUS decision really pisses me off because it was a "fuck you" to the entire country really. 1/2 the states on one side, 1/2 the states on the other, and when we ask SCOTUS to judge they're just like, "Uhh... nooo... we're scared of what might happen if we say the wrong thing." Ironically possibly the worst thing they could have done.

No, only the guy who said Constitutional Republic is right.

Okay and that's being eroded so what are we fighting against becoming then? I said we're currently a Constitutional Republic (or at least we were founded as such) and mob-rule is eroding that into a pure Democracy... which will eventually become autocratic (because mob will feed the mob and grow into an authoritarian regime).

The problem is that they'll just scream that those are the fake elections

Yeah we need to stop assuming that their denials of reality have any realistic endpoint.
