There will be no negotiations. You will accept what the DNC... your betters... puts forward to you. You will bow and kiss the oldest moldiest feet in human existence.

Now stand up and clap. And you will smile. Bigger now... I see you're not smiling big enough after placing your vote. Sorry, it's too late for you... you are now antisemetic and you are 110% responsible for the Republicans installing a authoritarian government.

Don't forget to chant "Joe Biden is the most labor friendly president in history " 20 times every time when you wake up.

Make voting the last part of doing your taxes. You get $5 for voting. The person is already verified when submitting, piggyback on that process.

Perhaps the automated drone army is nearing completion.

Then finally us useless eaters can finally be dealt with.

I did, and the primary to. Then the people who I voted alongside of talked massive shit about me because I didn't smile hard enough while voting for "the most pro-labor president".

Then they didn't do anything to fix the First Past the Post voting system and the spoiler effect that comes along side it. Despite lecturing people over and over about its mathematical flaws whenever anyone mentioned voting outside the two party system.

I will vote for your blue conservatives, but don't try to fool me that I am represented with things as they are.

GET TO KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORS.

I move every year because my rent keeps going up and I can't afford to stay. In some places ive been they offer a discount the first year then it goes up to the "normal rate".

Sorry to my MAGA neighbor that broke my headlight, I can't afford to stay and educate you.

You don't vote for people who don't represent you.

Our first past the post voting system is mathematically flawed to always result in a two party system through strategic voting.

People are not free to vote for who best represents them because they would let someone who represents them even less win the election.

While this spoiler effect is inherent in First Past The Post voting, there are other voting systems where there is no spoiler effect.

So here we are, chained in the trunk of the car these two legacy political parties drove off a cliff into a river.

And the Water rises.. take a deep breath.

If we replaced first past the post voting with a more representative electoral system, we could inject competition into the electoral process.

Then maybe they would have to care.

 
 
 
 
 
 

Looking for another part time job. the vast majority of these available jobs read like the creepy listing where some guy is looking for a roommate but is specifically looking for female roommates only.

Just gross.

With a more representative electoral system like Ranked Choice, more people would have been driven to the polls. More people voting equals more democratic votes.

How we vote is controlled at the state level, so why haven't blue states passed electoral reform? Don't the democrats want more votes? Why would the democratic party say no to these extra votes?

Is keeping 3rd parties from joining the table worth sacrificing the nation to the Republican's nightmare?

 
 
 

I bet that rich dumb ass would love this comparison.
