Klar, aber ich muss auch echt sagen: Der Gegner ist Trump. Das ist ein so brachialer Scheißhaufen für jeden, der kein weißer christlicher Mann ist, dass man echt jede Gegenposition nehmen muss.
Geht mir bei den Bundestagswahlen genauso. Sind alle Ampelparteien nach rechts gerückt? Ja. Sind die mir alle lieber als die AfD. Bruder ja, ich will nicht, dass meine Partnerin ausgewiesen oder verfolgt wird.
Haha, good one. Neither were democracies in the modern sense, in both cases voting right were so restrictive that large parts of the population did not matter.
Imagine a first past the post system but instead of states, you are grouped together by income.
And instead of voting simulaneously, the richest blocks votes first.
And now imagine, that 50% of the american populace gets one of 150 electors.
The vast majority of romans IN ROME never got to vote on any of the important positions.
Tree Diagrams can be useful to structure a sentence, but the UG system of "assume one system fits every language cuz inherent ability" is bad.
If you want to check your understanding of how phrases, clauses and words connect to each other in a certain language, trees can be pretty powerful.
To the latter point: My biggest gripe with linguistics is the tendency to boil everything down to a simple system.
Do you want to elaborate more on how politeness cant be explained by gricean maximes?
Fuss e.v. klingt eher nach institutionellem Fußfetischismus
Not a physical one. But atleast a cultural one towards the Kurds. And if they were to gain control of that region, they will conduct a phsycal one.
The country wasnt home of the largest holocaust denial conference for nothing.
Your post indicates that any other coutry or faction will say nothing about this. Hence silence.
Dont know why youre upset about someone pointing that out.
Is what people say, until they are the egg that is to be broken.
Ah the gricean maximes, the bane of my intro to pragmatics class
And yet, they still did it
You compare a flawed democracy to a non-democracy. Imagine moving the poorer half of America to one state, giving that state a single elector and letting them only vote if the vote so far has been perfectly split.
The US is on paper a flawed democracy and in reality an even more flawed democracy. The roman democracy did not even exist on paper.
Maybe its not that deep, i just don't like when people call Rome a democracy, when it did really come close to one. Or compare them to modern systems of government.
