and it easly could be made worse
I can explain it in Canadian terms which makes it easier to see
if Canada was a majority of vote contry
90% of our population lives within 10km or so of the US border
so all of nothern Canada would be fucked
every time
canada loves us Kappa
majority vote means the candidates would only need to campaign in the biggest states and only need to pander to the largest population areas, the electoral system makes smaller states matter and get attention
Not to mention then the influence on population centers will affect the country
but you guys are assuming that everyone in the cities then vote for one thing
so for example, New york has wall street
Sanfran is tech
thats because they do fire
these industries would dominate
and screw over everyone else
the cities are vote farms
They do though
that is the thing
I think it is more likely for texas to go democrat than sanfransisco to go republican
full stop
not much more likely
texas gerrymanders, thats why they are so dominantly republican
though they went red in the election
Even if most of the population lives in like, 5-6 major US cities, you have to try to make a system that does not fuck over everyone outside of those cities
I assume that is the case
anyways
yes thats the point
thats also why the senate is 2 per state and the house is population based
The major thing I like about the Canadian system over the US one is that we do not directly vote for our leader
fuck democracy
we dont either
we vote for representatives, and the party with the most representatives is incharge
delegates choose
the orgy for the whitehouse Keepo
you vote for the leader and the delegates are suppose to choose
I am aware that technically they could choose differently
they do choose differently
and quite a few did this time
That seems worse than just voting for the leader tbh
should never have allowed average joes to be politically involved
fuck this shit
like 9 went away from clinton
fire the problem with that though
is political activists and ideologues are the main people who are interested in politics
we never should of allowed fire out of belgium
there used to be requirements for voting priviledges, but the civil rights ammendments got rid of them because they were being abused
I am honestly sick to death of poltics, I wish the systems in place were not trash so I could go back to not having to watch it
For example, while I have no fucking interest in taking part in politics, I may actually have to go vote to try and stop the ontario liberals from winning
so that I am not fucked over
this makes even less sense to me tbh, how does one even get fucked over simply for another political party getting elected, that's just stupid
yes stop the commies
people are fucking stupid
Raising minimum wage to 19 dollars while cutting hydro costs drastically for 10 years so that in 20 years, you have to pay extremely more for hydro
they are literally buying votes now to fuck us later
Ontario liberals are running on the Bernie sanders free shit platform right now
after fucking us for the last however many years
i will never understand power hungry politicians and the idiot population that allow it to happen
fire its because one side gets completely dependent on government aid and the other side is forced to pay for it
vs
one side is lazy and has no aid and the other side doesn't get taxed to kingdom come
one of the groups is screwed either way
People allow it to happen because every aspect of their lives which should be telling them the truth is designated for propeganda
so they are ignorant of what is going on
Corperations have their candidates they want to win,, News media has their candidates, everyone who controls what everyone sees on the day to day has a person they want in power because it benifits them
So the politican that runs the biggest fuck the citizens, benif the corperations platform always has an edge
pikachu arrested for hate speach when?
At this point, any day
i'll screencap this and send it to cnn
Send it to CBC instead, I am sure they will dox me
the fucking trash of Canadian news
i wonder what happened to that american they arrested
should of followed that story
Well, we should probably end this before netherlands boi spends the entire morning not sleeping and getting angry over American and Canadian poltics Kappa
he's going to not sleep and be angry anyway
not just american politics, not even just politics. just people in general
I feel ya my dude
I dislike people as much as the next guy
watch the banana anime to not be angry
i think that would make me more angry
or you could be in a constant state of anger like me
obviously we need to play
