I’m only saying this because the vote failed everywhere, clearly it’s a strategy problem.
If you ask anyone on the street if they would want more moderates and parties in office, a large majority would agree, so if that’s the goal, the question is, how do we get there. Ranked choice is great, but it’s not optimal in either how the tallying determines a winner, or in convincing people this is better. Approval voting is clearly easier to explain and probably convince people it’s better. So now that the vote has failed, we should reassess our strategy from ranked choice to approval voting.
Absolutely agree. It’s so much less frustrating too
This is how you get people into positions where they can be blackmailed
We should be pushing approval voting instead, the educational barrier is way lower and both RC and approval are a load better than FPTP.
I think we should start pushing approval voting instead of ranked choice. Ranked choice is easy to explain how to vote but a little complex to explain how the vote is tallied and that’s what people find confusing.
Approval voting is straight forward and easy to explain, whoever gets the most approvals wins.
They both are much better than what we have.
It is really not easy to just replace commanders
There will certainly be commanders who resist if they think it’s unlawful. We may just need to wait to really see. I hope there will be resistance.
These kind of pics make me want to squeeze my dog too tight lol
Maybe no country should have veto power
I work for an org that makes a bunch of privacy protocols. Semaphore, RLN, and MACI. All of these use zero knowledge cryptography. Semaphore is a way of proving you are part of a group but without revealing who you are, RLN is the same thing plus spam resistance, and MACI is “minimal anti-collusion infrastructure” which is voting while trying to prevent bribery.
I imagine this is a bit outside of what you are asking for but thought I would share
Ya I did, it probably is, thanks for bringing this up. We need to get the word out! Fuck misinformation!
I read it after posting that ya haha. Makes sense it was Ryan and Krystal. She made a lot of good points. I think the DNC really fucked up by not giving Bernie a shot
Dropsite? Do we have breaking points fans here too??? My fucking people!
This is a larger internet/misinformation problem though, way beyond lemmy. You can filter stuff, but your friends and family may not
Get the word out more, we need to remind people or explain to people.
Honestly we need what you wrote but way more succinct in a way we can just copy and paste it to every post and news article we see that is just trying to divide us.
