Why don't you guys start a revolution against first-past-the-post? Fascism has far less power that way.
Unfortunately only the calm and sane people are upset, and it's harder to whip us into a full revolution.
The elites have been studying for decades. They now know exactly how far they can push us before we fight back. That's why inequality is worse now than before the French revolution, but nothing has changed. They've learned how to prevent us from revolting.
We had ranked-choice-voting at the State level on the ballot here in Oregon and voters rejected it by about 60%.
Same in my state. I voted against the amendment that banned it but I actually didn’t fully realize it was about ranked choice voting until I checked results. I hate that shit. It makes me so angry.
Came here to say this as well, and OR is a reliably liberal state.
Sounds about white.
I don't know why you are getting down voted. It's who beat them. White guys came out and voted it out.
I think both parties that have power right now are opposed to RCV because it makes their job harder - they would have to be For something rather than just Against they opponent
If we are at the point of solution by revolution, I think our aims should be higher than just first past the post...
Surely all of the revolutionaries online dissuading people from voting Harris will kick into gear and get everyone motivated to change the constitution, fix the electoral system, eliminate capitalism, and obtain gay space communism for all.
Most of us have been, and will continue to be, engaging in direct action in our day-to-day lives.
Yeah keep it up because it's obviously going great 👍
It is for my community. Liberals being apathetic about the status quo isn't my responsibility
My state just banned ranked choice lol
Remind me again what style of democracy the Weimar Republic had?
