It looks like the entire state was ignorant or misled by deliberately confusing wording. Down ballot voters were more likely to check "no". Had they used the word slavery in the measure it would have more likely have passed like it did in a variety of other states that, wait for it, are liberal
Okay, so the neoliberals that are the actual problem chose poor wording so they could trick the liberals into voting to keep slavery?
Were the changes to the LA budget the product of "ancient federal and state laws" or neoliberals now?
Are all the politicians neoliberals, or just most with power in the state?
Im not really sure which part youre confused about. The law that has existed since the 1800s, how ballot measures are worded in "legalese" so theyre difficult to understand, or that neolibs are republicans wearing democrat skin?
I know its a lot to comprehend but i think you can do it buddy
