I thought we all agreed that WeChat is a security vulnerabilliy

Låter genomtrist…

Är trött på att byggbolag köper områden och bygger identiska standardhus för att sälja av.

That is a fair point, which just makes me wonder what else new services can offer that people will pay for…

I kinda thought it was the Antec 900…

Are those serious? I thought they were the daily joke but not funny…

News sites are in need of a paradigm shift.

I think we might get to a system where summaries of news are free, but indepth articles and videos are paid.

Oh and I believe that news sites should scrap subscription only models, I should be able to pay 1-2EUR for a single article that I want to read, with no risk of the payment being a subscription.

Obviously subscriptions models should still be an alternative if the users want it.

Damn, this took me a while, nice!

Paywall.

That is part of it, but I believe it is simpler than that.

The Republicans love FPTP/Gerrymandering, it is how they stay in power. So keeping FPTP/Gerrymandering is treated as a question of survival for them.

The Democrats would win big on getting rid of FPTP/Gerrymandering, but in the long term getting rid of FPTP would mean new parties popping up and actually getting in power.

So both parties would see reduced influence if FPTP got dropped in the US, so outside of idealistic reasons neither party has any reasons to kill it off.

The only way I can see it possibly working requires a highly idealistic supreme court snd boils down to:

A public information campaign about the problems with FPTP which triggers a big movement in the public demanding change, after decades of the campaign running it somehow gets acted on and signed into law that FPTP may not be used, Republican states take the matter to the SCOTUS, which in this scenario actually approves the law getting rid of FPTP. This is highly unlikely.

Note that I am not an American, this is just my perception about how the issue might be solved.

Sigh, just get rid of FPTP and Gerrymandering will immediately stop being a thing, and as an added benefit, third parties will finally be able to establish themselves in the US again.

Ok, when you are not even trying to argue in good faith, I am done.

Yes, I am glad you keep up.

I don’t believe we can afford Trump to win another term, and no, I am not blind to Harris’ issues either, but this is like comparing a fully rotten and moldy apple with a normal apple that happens to have bad bump on it.

I’ll be honest, if I were an American, I’d vote democrat, since they seem far more likely to abollish the electoral college and FPTP than the republicans.

You live in a fantasy world where you think that abstaining from voting will do anything other than support the Republicans.

I may not like either side very much, but I am a realist, and the reallity is that the Democrats are the lesser of two evils.

So far you have only complained, and not shown any even vaugley realistic alternative to mine, and don’t say abstaining from voting, or voting for a third party, in todays America it will only benefit the Republicans.

But I do have to appologize, I am truly sorry for expecting a resonable debate with a user from lemmy.ml and especially on a lemmy.ml community, I am very sorry for wasting both of our time.

I will not vote for any politician that has supported genocide

This is admirable, in a normal democracy, the US has a broken democracy, someone abstaining from voting for the less bad option will directly benefit the worse option.

I am just trying to bring some realism into the discussion, in a democracy without FPTP your option would be fine, with FPTP a lack of vote for one option will directly benefit the other.

If you don’t want Trump to manage this crisis, you gotta vote Harris.

And are you so dumb to believe that People criticizing Harris are going to vote Trump?

No, certainly not, but some may not vote at all, which would benefit the Trump campaign.

Trump is not called out by his very existance.

Trump is called out as a result of his actions.

Calling out Harris at this stage will only serve to drive away voters from her, which will only benefit the Trump campaign.

You have two evils fighting for power, pick the lesser.

This situation will continue untill the US gets rid of the electors and FPTP in elections.

Only then can third parties have a real chance and you can actually vote with more granularity.

You just said that both parties as equally bad on this issue, so why not call out Trump as well?
