    So what if there isn’t that and everyone kind of gets a say

    You know that’s not even how government worked for most of history right that’s super recent and like newer than steam engine real politics is complicated

    That’s not even how modern us government works

    Edit: so my ex gf was Canadian. She lived in Los Angeles in winter. A sanctuary city. Matters because she was an immigrant and didn’t do any paperwork about it. Feds would arrest her city cops were forbidden from arresting her for that and we both smoked a ton of weed which feds say is illegal but the state/province if California said is legal and fine and needs to be taxed but the feds would fuck your shit up for if you were known for it.

    There is not one authority deciding what is and isn’t okay even here and now and it used to be way more fractious complicated. Imagine if I was catholic or wahabbist.
