Portland’s ranked-choice debut causes voter engagement to crater; 1 in 5 who cast ballots chose no one for City Council
  • I guess I don't understand why this is such a difficult concept to understand.

    Pick as many or as little candidates you want for the position and then rank them.

    If you are wanting to phone it in just vote for the one candidate like the old system.

  • I really wanted to like this as an alternative to smash brothers but they actively made each update since beta feel less competitive and sluggish while having terrible battle pass/UI shoveled in to monetize and confuse it's player base as much as possible.

  • Americans stockpile abortion pills and hormones ahead of ‘reproductive apocalypse’ under Trump
  • He's the president America deserves. I feel bad because the Democrats wouldn't listen to their base and Biden leading voters on by saying he's a one and done President then turning around and ruining any chance at a primary to vet candidates.

    The American people that know what this means are really the ones I feel the most for.

  • Europe’s Greens ask Jill Stein to pull out of US election to prevent Trump victory
  • It's amazing how the spoiler effect propaganda from the DNC gets eaten up so easily by voters when a better system of rank choice voting would prevent the thing issue completely.

    If the Democrats actually ran on these issues you stated seriously and were not so spinless they wouldn't have to try to fight third party candidates from running in court to push subpar empty suit politicians through the finish line.

    Even in their own party, centrist candidate Dean Phillips tried to run against Biden and he had a media blackout and was actively fighting the DNC while the power at be pushed Joe "just a stutter" Biden.

    If Jill Stein is such a threat maybe don't push the 81 year old incumbent on your base and with no primary to stress test his viability. Then when his brain shorts out during a debate and he drops THEY STILL don't primary Kamala who's 2020 run was absolutely destroyed the second people started listening to her word salad no answer bullshit get called out by Tulsi Gabard's grifter ass.

  • Europe’s Greens ask Jill Stein to pull out of US election to prevent Trump victory
  • I mean she has been running since 2012, are you saying that she has been a Trump plant this entire time?

    If you are voting for Jill Stein it probably means that you have a distain for both political parties and want a candidate that's not anointed without a primary to vet them AND you don't want a authoritarian figure that will speed up our failing infrastructure and decline as a nation.

  • Jill Stein hurts Donald Trump more than Kamala Harris, poll suggests
  • I would agree with you maybe 10 years ago but I think that the empire being in such decline and leading us to the worst candidates back to back to back it's really hard for me to believe that third parties are to blame for the spoiler effect. Taking third parties off the ballot most likely wouldn't have the effect that people put on them because everyone has an opinion on the two candidates more than ever.

  • Jill Stein hurts Donald Trump more than Kamala Harris, poll suggests
  • Without looking at any statistics or polling, I think the spoiler effect is not as prominent and is over stated for one reason.

    If I'm going out of my way to not vote for the Democrats or Republicans and voting third party that would mean that I dislike my options so much that I'm giving a fuck you to the two party system.

    What people can gather from this is if you said there was only two options I would just sit out and therefore it wasn't going to affect either candidate regardless.

    I'm open to be convinced otherwise but I think candidates blaming spoilers should look at the electoral college and themselves when every 4 years they are ready to blame single digit candidates for their losses.

  • The unseen struggle: Job dissatisfaction and minimal effort among young professionals
  • For the equivalent of $402 a month plus having no input into what is the dream job can leave you feeling empty for sure.

    I agree sounds awesome until you realize you are at a bullshit job and are not even making headway or money doing what you trained for.

  • PlayStation to Shut Down New Game ‘Concord’ Two Weeks After Launch, Will Refund Players

  • Jimmy Carter : The Most [Unfairly] Hated President of the United States - Documentary
  • It's interesting because it was after my time but hindsight kind of showed he was right in principal but wasn't a great statesman and couldn't do the political calculations behind the scenes to rally his own party much less unit both sides.

    I vaguely know about Ollie North and how the hostage situation before his second election run sabotaged his campaign but that seems to be more a nail in the coffin rather than the only reason for his failure.
