I've had a positive experience with Here WeGo as well.

Yes. We need to work to create a democracy.

[-] citizenAlex@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

I couldn't tell either.

We need to work to change the system. Ranked choice voting, nonpartisan elections and legislatures, etc. Oh, and money isn't speech. It's power.

We should make room for for third and fourth party candidates wherever we can. There are states that implement nonpartisan elections in some ways. Nebraska has a unicameral, nonpartisan legislature.

You must be bad at tracing IP addresses because I'm not a Russian bot. And the Democrats have ALREADY made the Republicans win, in case you haven't noticed. I'm pointing out that political parties are a corruption of our politics and should not have direct electoral access. They should be like any other special interest group.

There is hope to avoid violent revolution. It's just not coming from the Dems. What is needed is for citizens to band together and start doing things differently. Protest movements (e.g. Indivisible) need to shift from protest to disruption and noncompliance.

There won't be real reforms from Democrats because they're complicit and invested in the system staying exactly as it is. Just "nicer."
