"The filibuster has deep roots in racism, and it should not be permitted to serve that function or to create a veto for the minority. In a democracy, it's majority rules,” Warren said.

"liberal" Feinstein is strongly against killing the filibuster, saying she doesn't know what will replace it.

how about simple majority rule?

When are people going to learn that the party in power will do everything to keep power and that includes changing the rules to their favor. That's how it is, this isn't about competition.

So then it's what happens when you become a minority, just like politics. And it's ok. ??

is racist in the sense that the filibuster was used by racists to block civil rights for non-whites

Repugs abused it, 250 cloture votes in Obama's last year, to obstruct absolutely everything from the Dems.

filibuster is essentially "minority rule", so why the fuck bother to obtain a majority that can't do anything?

The Senate is fucked, the fucking Constitution gave us a rigged, perverted, anti-democratic govt structure.
