A periodic mass ritual legitimising the delegation of popular sovereignty to an empowered few, performed in the name of “democracy” but in reality employed often to consummate its usurpation.
Just as how most students only study for exams rather than for intellectual and spiritual enrichment, most politicians (in a “democracy”) only work for elections rather than serving and leading the people with compassion and vision.

Get the re-electedmug. A word that has been overused and ripped of its meaning by the Basement Caucus aka Conservative ET. The word use to be used in the context of an US election and whether a candidate can win, rather then how it is used now. For many in the Basement Caucus, the word describes candidates who run on an America First message or something close to that in states and districts that are not safe Republican. They doompost about how this one candidate or another will lose because of their ideological stances, not realizing that much more factors in a campaign than that. "Electability" is also used as a way to deflect criticism from their horrible candidates that they support, instead buying into media smears and lines to stop the "far right" candidate from winning. Most often these electabros are complete idiots or apart of the establishment that they pretend to loathe in order to be apart of this nerdy group of losers known as Election Twitter.
"Kari Lake isn't electable because she said the 2020 election was st*len, and that will lose with voters in Phoenix"-dumb twitter user focused on electability.
