      Strange how a woman could complain about her abusive partner, when there exists another man who is “1000 times” more abusive. What a selfish and dumb woman.

          The famously least democratic voting system? I am aware.

          Google:

          First Past the Post (FPTP) is widely regarded as a minimally democratic system. Here are some key reasons:

          Lack of Proportionality: FPTP fails to accurately represent the popular vote, often resulting in a mismatch between the number of seats won and the percentage of votes received. This leads to a concentration of power among the largest parties, marginalizing smaller parties and independent candidates.
          Wasted Votes: In FPTP systems, many votes are wasted as they do not contribute to the outcome of the election. In the 2024 UK general election, for example, 74% of votes were wasted, meaning that only one in four votes had a decisive impact.
          Tactical Voting: FPTP encourages strategic voting, where voters choose a candidate not because they genuinely support them, but because they think they have a better chance of winning. This undermines the principle of democratic choice and leads to a lack of accountability among elected representatives.
          Limited Representation: FPTP systems often result in a small number of dominant parties, limiting the representation of diverse voices and perspectives. This can exacerbate existing social and economic inequalities.
          Comparative Ranking: According to the Citizen Network’s Global Ranking of Electoral Systems, FPTP is not used by most countries, and even among those that do use it, it is often criticized for its limitations. Many countries have adopted more democratic alternatives, such as Proportional Representation (PR) systems.
          

          In conclusion, while FPTP may seem simple and intuitive, it is widely regarded as a least democratic system due to its lack of proportionality, wasted votes, tactical voting, limited representation, and comparative ranking among electoral systems.

            Obviously you don’t seem to understand that it means that either bad is winning or way way worse is winning.

              Your idea of “winning” is maintaining a status quo of state sponsored genocide with exponentially growing homelessnes.

              Those that suffer the most in America will barely register a difference in their lives either way. Meanwhile you pretend a major distinction exists in a corporate duopoly.

                  How dumb of me to think the election will not significantly change the lives of almost anyone who is suffering in America and beyond.

                    Yeah, that is not true. One continues with a set of decisions that are actually improving my life, and the lives of those around me, while keeping the status quo abroad. The other, and everyone working with them, have produced a plan for governing that will make both significantly worse.

                    Just because you sit in a position of privilege, that means the GOP getting their way won’t significantly change your life, doesn’t mean that is true for others.

        I didnt infer that and you know it. Strange how you don’t post anything else about being pro-Palestine or raise any other of the myriad of issues they are facing.

          So the only valid criticisms can come from whoever passes your vaguely defined litmus test of “posting about being pro-Palestine”?
