RCV is definitely an improvement, but approval is better

Speaking of, Canada is potentially taking a second swing at electoral reform soon. Who knows... Good timeline, it might kick something off

IMO, it should be two rounds. The first (the "primary" round) should be ranked choice voting to pick the top two and the second should be majority vote between these final two choices.

To be fair, Jill Stien isn't running her own Instagram account. It's probably some intern that's scrolling through comments and liking anything that says, "vote Green."

Not to support Jill Stein but i often like things sarcastically. Not usually political statements, however.

Horseshoe theory is shit.

Just to be clear.

Enemy action is not what horseshoe theory describes either though.

If jill Stein and the green party were serious about being elected then they'd be supporting state and local green party candidates. You never hear about jill Stein at midterm elections stumping for congressional seats.

The greens aren't a serious political party, they're cosplayers running a pyramid scheme

Yeah I found that out and was flabbergasted. They aren't even trying to run in congressional seats. It's all this attempt to jump straight to state and presidential office.

"Dems need to be stopped" from doing what? Providing lunch for kids?

Oh wow, I wonder what the next excuse the greens will give me when I point out that they're a joke spoiler party, now that we have evidence that they're a joke spoiler party.

Jill Stein; world's most famous tankie.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not even sure if she's a tankie as much as just a complete asshole

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

She is. It has always meant "when Russian tanks are coming, submit, don't resist, of course the Russians are justified rolling their tanks into other countries."

Stein is happy for every town in Ukraine to end up like Bucha, Bakhmut, and Mariupol. She's a tankie.
