You_IRL

Did you know that with more representative voting systems, people would be free to vote for whomsoever they wish, secure in the knowledge their vote would still be casted against those they don't want in office?

I invite you to my asklemmy post to discuss your recent commitment to replacing First Past The Post voting in your state so people can vote freely.

Drag doesn't drive a car. Drag is improving society somewhat. And drag's state has already implemented ranked choice voting.

Drag isn't arguing against the idea of improving things, drag is complaining that you, personally, don't do it.

Calling out the objectively stupid people who are refusing to vote Harris over Gaza does not make someone inherently against better voting systems. I'm not even sure why you're bringing that up as if it's relevant; nobody was talking about it and most people here are for it anyway.

Yes, drag very much enjoys voting for the socialist party in drag's home state, which uses ranked choice voting. Drag can do what americans can't, because people in drag's country actually work to make things better, while americans think they can achieve voting reform by refusing to participate in politics.

people in drag’s country actually work to make things better

Which fabled country is this? Do they take UK/EU citizens?
