I think it’s a tribal reactive feeling of “my people need to live”. Remember that conservatives are more fear driven.

6·1 year agoI find this 4chan edgy (I got that dark humor “hoho”), but wholesome in a weird way?

Create a new character that does have a reason to stick around. *Session 0 should be the creation of the story of how the group met, they should not meet in session 1.
Aaand there goes the last attempt at good noncorp news in the US.
School kids? I’m a grown European and wondering where the uprising is. Will the judges finally arrest them for not following court orders? If they don’t that surely has to be it? IF THEY DON’T LISTEN TO THE LAW, THAT HAS TO BE THE LINE, RIGHT?

Aaand that’s where we started. Power naturally piles up and the choice becomes whether you like it to be socialised into democracy while it occasionally crumble into autocracy, or to have it privatised into feudalism.

Political Memes@lemmy.world•can't believe this is a real headline

Just gotta look to Russia

1·2 years agoIt may not be the person you voted for, but there is someone that’s supposed to represent your community.
That’s a weird take on politics. “Hitler comes from my place so he represents me.”
As a non-EU European I vote on country politics at the national elections, and local politics at the county elections. That way I have local representation in local matters, and national representation at national matters.
The current right wing surge in Europe is mostly because people don’t like the amount of Muslim immigrants and most countries have only far right parties that rides on that matter. Plus Russian influence I assume.You do not get a good political landscape with one seat districts that can even be gerrymandered. Every fucking US state house is divided in DEM and REP, that’s not healthy.

3·2 years agoIn a binary system they are sadly still better than the other choice. Vote at every instance for greener alternatives inside the democrats and election reform.

1·2 years agoYou dont even get a representative by 2., 3. and 4. candidate votes in the 1 seat districts. Your vote is actually worth zero if it doesn’t win. My 7th party vote goes towards a party representative that can voice my cause. My vote is not lost at all.

11·2 years agoI think it would be more effective to start an election reform faction inside the Dems rather than abstain the vote for democracy against dictatorship.

43·2 years agoWhen the options are democracy or dictatorship and you choose not to vote… it’s kinda gross. I get that you got a failure of a system over there, but the fight to update your democracy should be done after you choose to have one.

2·2 years ago“Even in a proportional representation system”
In a proportional system votes for other candidates aren’t lost tho, which means it doesn’t force a two party system by design.
I don’t think it is stated enough how horribly weak the current US one seat FPTP system is.

Maybe they will make a Noble Trump prize… no fuck dont give them ideas
