Sanders calls deal to end government shutdown a "disaster" - Lemmy.World

Bernie should have started 3rd party when they cheated him out of the presidential nomination. He played it safe and achieved nothing.

Americans are too stupid to vote for a 3rd party and they’re too stupid to implement any kind of ranked choice voting.

We all suffer because of our collective stupidity, and rich people continue to profit off of it.

Oh no, we aren’t too stupid to implement ranked choice voting, we live in a country run by people who have a vested interest in not implementing it

Por que no los dos?

MA lost the ballot initiative for ranked choice voting by lobbyists who made enough people believe it’s too complicated.

Too complicated? Motherfucker you’ve been ranking favorite things longer than you’ve been shitting on a toilet.

ooh now im thinking lets just do tier list of canidates.
That’s almost literally exactly what RCV is.
almost. the problem with tier lists is maga folks would put trump as S tier and someone like me would not rank anyone above B and more likely C.
W/e it says the groundwork for having a system which aligns more with what you are voting for rather than against
just to be clear im not arguing against any type of alternative to first past the post but more musing about people making tier list videos and trying to joke a bit.
