when power isn’t shared equally, those with power tend to remove rights from those without or fail to enforce them.

So why isn't the DNC forming a national push for Ranked Choice voting? Stopping the Republicans is bigger then preserving the democratic party.

Joe biden needs backup on the debate stage. We need more chances to defeat the republicans. We need more then two viable political parties.

All that is possible with electoral reform. We don't actually need to wait for federal reform. How we vote is controlled at the state level. This means all those blue states can push through this much needed reform with little Republican resistance.

We deserve the *freedom * to vote for someone who best represents us, secure in the knowledge that our vote will still be counted even if our preference didn't won. We deserve to be free of the spoiler effect.

The only thing standing in our way in blue states is the democratic party. Don't they care about beating the Republicans more then being in power?

Consumers getting anything is just a byproduct of profits. They'd sell you shit in a box if they could. And some literally have.

Cards against humanity did it AFAIK

Thanks for the massive bill mom and dad.

They got their serotonin and I got exploitation every waking moment of my life.

While I wish you a happy and healthy life, I do hope you get to experience the joys of the US Healthcare system some day to broaden your limited horizons.

Guess I'll die.

Electoral reform at the state level so people can vote outside the two party system with no spoiler effect.

AOC? The same AOC that voted to prevent the rail union workers from striking?

People are dumb, people are uneducated, people have short attention spans, people are undecided, but people also don’t know if they should vote in the face of a realistic takeover of the US by a fascist movement scenario. Maybe it’s time we take away democracy from people who are actively disengaging from it. Once Trump is president again, it will be too late. End him and everybody who follows him.

The quiet part is a bit loud in this one my blue conservative "ally".

Its not secret. I want to dissolve the two party system and force the legacy political parties to compete in a free market of ideas. If they arent competitive because their muscles have weakened from long use of First Past The Post voting as a crutch... that's on them.
