    First past the post doing what it does.

    Still worth pulling the “less evil” lever for, you know, less evil.

        Hey, uh, I think this thing is broken

        Nah, it’s working as intended, if you look back here both levers are pressing this button that says ‘Barbarism’

          This is the thing they can’t admit. That the system isn’t broken. It works exactly how its meant to, for the people ots meant to wirk for.

          For libs its always some magic bullet, some minor reform, one reversal of one policy and it’ll all be fixed. “The problem is ‘first past the poll’ we need ‘ranked choice’ then elections will work.” For example

        Typical hexbear user

        Either you’re creating anti democratic propaganda or you’re consuming and regurgitating it. Fuck off.

          Nah I think the people who constantly make the most barbaric decisions or excuse why they can’t revert them are the ones being anti-democratic.

          Wouldn’t those with the power given to them by the population who then act against what those voters want be the anti-democratic ones?

          I struggle to see how potential voters pointing out they never get what they ask for is the reason for any of our problems today.

        Ohh yeah, you always get more evil, but it is earnestly less of it.

        You prefer +1 evil or +10 evil? That’s our system of government. Push for voting reforms, which neither evil likes, but you are more likely to get with +1 evil then +10.
