That is recount territory as I'm hearing it was just around a 400 vote difference but with Abbot supporting the incumbent and Trump not being involved at all, doubt it'll change.
The good news to take from this is NOT to get blackpilled as has been shouted by the media cronies, a 'far right gun YouTuber' with little political experience and has video like this managed to SERIOUSLY challenge an establishment crony.
It's really amazing because not 5 - 10 years ago I would have potentially argued from the normie perspective going "There are retards out there but we shouldn't simply do away with democracy purely because of them since there are people out there who care about their country".
Now though I'm probably more extreme on it than even people on this site because when you see what utter opportunistic bastards people are you realise that they can and will use the majority vote to take away the rights of other people purely because they don't like them. Adam Smith was fucking right, it's tyranny of the majority, I don't know what system could possibly replace democracy but I know I've very much done away with it in my mind. Mainly because the kind of democracy I'm after would never come to fruition because it would actually work and displace the types of people I hate who would play the victim.
We really don't have old school patriots anymore in the west who just care about their country, don't get me wrong, there are some about but the average person is just a fucking normie or NPC whose personality revolves around trending algorithms and whatever current thing bollocks the media is pushing right now. I think that mentality being done away with is one of the biggest reasons for the current state of decline overall and it's why I want nothing to do with people.
I think something like the system Heinlein had in Starship Troopers had potential. The problem is that any idiot is allowed to vote and the vast majority are far too easily manipulated. "Tyranny of the majority" is exactly right, especially when you realize how many normies are too stupid to question anything.
How many people do you know who were stupid enough to not only get the clot shot, but also went back for "boosters" too? I've met entirely too fucking many and those retards were even proud of their getting used like that. Too many that will just vote for whatever they're told to fit in, with no ability to even try to comprehend the consequences of it. It's all so tiresome.
Mass immigration is overwhelmingly unpopular in the West yet continues anyway. If "tyranny of the majority" were at work, that wouldn't be happening. The (White) majority needs to do more tyranny, not less.
I've had too many idiots claim they aren't anti-second amendment while telling me they voted for Biden in the next breath. These idiots cannot connect the dots between who they voted for and the consequences of their choice being elected. This is all presuming fair and honest elections too, but that's been called into doubt a few times.
