Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto [Closed] Moved to !fedigrow@lemmy.zip@lemm.ee•Now that vegantheoryclub is gone, which is the most active vegan community?English31·16 天前Hey Blaze! There are no conflicts between the 2 communities anymore as the Lemmy.dbzer0.com one is no longer being steered by an astroturfer pushing false narratives about the vegan philosophy.
I’m willing to consolidate them together.

Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto UK Politics@feddit.uk•How we can smash Britain’s two-party system for good at the next electionEnglish21·21 天前That was a terrible video that doesnt explain your points.
“Terrible” video because it doesn’t jive with your confirmation bias. I disagree the video is very made. Why are you dead-set on a system that only works to entrench the 2 big parties. It shows how passing the alternative vote makes democracy less fair in the long run. The top performers on the global metrics are often pr countries such as Norway, Switzerland, Denmark and Iceland while Australia is trailing well behind.

How so? Thats just a transparency issue, if we know that 50% of the Labour votes were originally Green votes then that definitely sets a tone.
Which labour can conveniently ignore because they have a stronger stranglehold on democracy as they receive the lower ranked votes thanks to the funneling effect.
Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto Global News@lemmy.zip•Palestine to raise flag at World Health Organization for first time after voteEnglish11·21 天前Sounds like projection because Israel isn’t being embargoed.
Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto Global News@lemmy.zip•Palestine to raise flag at World Health Organization for first time after voteEnglish21·22 天前The British are not protesting against this nonsense enough when this is the behavior that still being espoused from their government. You do not get to them let off the hook!
Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto UK Politics@feddit.uk•How we can smash Britain’s two-party system for good at the next electionEnglish32·22 天前No because instant runoff-ranked ballots still has the same issues: lack of accountability, under-representation of small parties, hostile politics and the lack of action on issues. The government needs to be heavily pressured to pass proportional representation. It is not difficult for the politicians to do, they’re just inventing excuses for themselves to avoid making British democracy fairer for everyone involved.
Here is a video on why the alternative vote is problematic.
Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto UK Politics@feddit.uk•How we can smash Britain’s two-party system for good at the next electionEnglish3·23 天前You would need to group up the districts and maybe add extra seats to the parliament to ensure the most proportionality as possible. As in Ireland the districts contain 3-5 seats each.
Sunshine (she/her)@piefed.socialto UK Politics@feddit.uk•How we can smash Britain’s two-party system for good at the next electionEnglish11·23 天前The UK would be a lot better off following Ireland’s steps in adopting a single transferable vote system. Yes it keeps the local representation while providing the voters the most sophisticated way in expressing their approval of the candidates as one can rank 3 or 7 or even up to 42 candidates if they like.
The first-past-the-post invention has served it’s purpose.
