“The reason? She had shared, on her personal Instagram account, in a temporary story slide, a post written not by herself but by Palestinian poet Remi Kanazi calling for the shunning of Zionist ideology and its supporters.”

If/until the US installs a ranked choice voting system and dissolves the electoral college, third party candidates are not viable.

We need an alternate voting system, not a takeover of a major political party. At least ranked choice voting or maybe STAR voting.

Every so often I wonder why I still use windows. And then I realize it’s easier to debloate windows than it is to emulate windows software on wine.

Everything is wrong with these weirdos.

I live in a "first past the post" country that forces a two-party system and penalizes voting your conscience unless it aligns with one of those parties. While there may be flaws in Ranked Choice Voting that could emerge in fringe cases, it is so obviously superior to our current system that it is hard for me to worry too much about the nuance of how it might not be 100% perfect 100% of the time. Any (democratic) system is better than what we have now.
