All 10 Are Republican States - Lemmy.world

what a propaganda so vote for democrats forever right? /s

Nonono. First you remove FPTP. Then you get more than two real parties like most of western society.

When you have a democracy in place, we can start talking about who to vote for.

you know the title of this post had me thinking: is it intentionally directing people to pin all faults to republicans; and that democrats means freedom and good lives ?

Tech people will almost always be progressives. This is the way it’ll probably always be.

USA only have two “real” parties. The republican party who is now seen as regressive and the Democrat party who are seen as progressive (they used to be the opposite back in the day)

To me, the word “freedom” is toxic and a non-starter. Most western societies are free.

Coming from a country with many parties, having only two options is undemocratic. Affiliating with only one is reductive, especially when the parties change course all the time.

So, to respond to your comment:

Both parties are a bit shit, as they don’t need to self-regulate because of their duopoly.

Democrats are more progressive than republicans, thus people with higher educations will gravitate this way.

No voting system is perfect, but FPTP is one of the worst, and imo is the main reason for the culture wars - virtue signaling fluff to keep poor angry (doesn’t matter which side they’re angry with) by making people stop voting based on wealth redistribution, and instead on invented issues invented by the politicians.
