Their US-centric narrative that all our problems would be solved if people like them were afforded their rightful majority rule, and control over the lives of the rural, the old, et al.

I just want my vote to count as much as anyone else's. You can try to paint that as a nefarious agenda if you like but it squares with the 14th amendment and modern thinking on the issue. The country was founded on only white landowners being able to vote and we've evolved quite a bit since then. I think it's time we evolve some more. It's pretty gross that North Dakota + South Dakota gets twice the representation in the Senate as california.

Tyranny of the majority is a nefarious agenda, yes. It doesn’t square with modern thinking — it squares with the US liberal narrative that if we could just force the wrong-thinkers to conform, our problems would be solved.

“You believe in democracy, you dumb liberal” isn’t the huge own you think it is.
