Well, they are my personal creation so they aren’t dispatched throughout multiple regions. If you want I’ll make one on you!

Both democrats and republicans are sh*te, they usually don't do any good to the country. America's other parties are too underrepresented. Give them a chance at the limelight, not the dems and reps

For that, we would have to change the voting system.
FPTP is doing no good, it only leads to two major parties in the landscape. For congress, MMP or a direct vote would be nice. For the presidency, Alternative Voting would be a solution

I believe it is past time to take drastic measures against the bored outclass of billionaires and their new era of space travel bravado. Before they damage what they wish to see from above, have these people taxed out of their money. This conduct, in my opinion, should be prohibited since it has a carbon footprint equivalent to what 278 ordinary US-like homes spend in a year for 5 minutes of showboating. Imagine sending Mohammed and his refugee family back to the Aegean Sea in their flimsy boat while Jeff and Richard are having fun in space. Stop the madness. It's past time for change. 🤦

Do you want to discover where the truth lies? I just finished watching an entire video about how the food Americans eat is made... Never in my life have I felt so disgusted.

Then there are those who argue that "if you knew how it's actually manufactured, you won't consume it," despite the fact that we all know that everyone is too fat to quit... 🙄

"Based" means he agrees with you, he wasn't disagreeing I'm pretty sure... :P

Eh, it's ok, internet slang can be odd sometimes; it took me a while to figure out what people meant by it.

Also, speaking of things that are and aren't based, shouldn't there be an election going on right about now?

Yes, FPTP is kak, a better option would be just for direct votes. If a person votes, then they have one vote. If 10 million people vote for one person, then that person has 10 million votes. Und so weiter, und so weiter. Having a candidate win whilst having a minority of public votes is wrong and an insult to democracy

There is no election because i've won. Not in the jokey sense as that i've won with the help of corruption and bribes compensation, but because Serb-Mac didn't comply to one of the criteria to be eligible for the election. Considering he was my only competitor, it means that i've won by default and i've now just got to wait until next week to assume office

If it would be replaced by something better, I'm sure that the US will have many different parties, each one covering a certain demographic, like in Europe
if all those parties would run in a presidential election, no candidate would be able to win a majority. That's why I suggest ranked-choice voting

Wat. I did not know that. Would probably have run otherwise so that there would have been a race. Oh well. Congrats. :P

Libertandonien wrote:That's why I suggest ranked-choice voting

Alternative vote with a threshold slightly higher than 50% is probably the best way to elect a President. We all know why FPTP is trash but so is a two round election. Take Peru, for example.

Peruvian Presidential Election, 2016, round 2
Fujimori - 49.88%
Kuczynski - 50.12%

Peruvian Presidential Election, 2016, round 1
Fujimori - 39.86%
Kuczynski - 21.05%
All others - 39.09%

Kuczynski won the presidency with only 21.05% of the inital vote. Thought that's bad? This year's was worse.

Round 2:
Castillo - 50.13%
Fujimori - 49.87%

Round 1
Castillo - 18.92%
Fujimori - 13.41%
Everyone Else - 67.67%

Two thirds of Peruvian voters did not vote for one of the two final candidates in the first round. That combined with the fact that both were (relatively) extremist, led to a terrible election cycle rivaling 2020 in the States.

Also both 2016 and 2021 were anti-Fujimori elections. She literally only differed by .01% in the two.

This thus leads to my conclusion that a ranked (alternate) choice voting system with a threshold slightly above 50% would be the best to both encourage multiple candidates without the downsides of the round system.

I've planned something around that idea, I can tell you so far😏

Problem is not so much FPTP or alternative votes, it is the presidential system existing in the first place :P
