Nope. We play by the existing rules. Which does not mean we can’t advocate changing the rules so they are better.

Depends on where your bad faith point stops with this.

Disenfranchising voters is not “governing,” and anti democratic measures are anti democratic whether they were enacted by a majority or not.

"Govern" is doing a lot of work there, when you really mean "implement more apartheid."

“Govern” is a funny euphemism for “declare war on democracy”. We’re not talking about building roads and hiring cops. Or keeping the lights on, which they obviously can’t do. We’re talking about deliberate voter disenfranchisement.

What if we had some system by which the majority generally ruled, but which extended particular protections to certain fundamental rights like voting to prevent abuse by the majority? Some sort of constitution
