You should have individuals recieve votes, and they get elected to some common house. The party with the most individuals is allowed to form the government
I think thats a good system
proportional systems are weird, in-practice they rarely solve problems because they add more incentive to gridlock and get dissolved as a do-over
and I sorta think democracies naturally trend towards a 2-party system
I don't think they have to
and if you look at history, a 1-party system
but that sample size is smaller
Replying to legorhin #jazardly what we really need is to return to the original 1 rep per 50,000 rule and make the districts so granular that gerrymandering is impossible (edited)
yes
someone posted a good counter-argument in this chat last week
which I agree with, but still think the benefits of smaller districts would improve things even if you end up with fraud in some areas
Replying to PhrogDor #froglandus2 Kinda sorta, but you gotta deport a fuck load of people first to ensure immigrants don't directly then disenfranchise the voting of the domestic population

New Virginia law banning `assault firearms' prompts quick lawsuits ...
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger has signed legislation banning certain semi-automatic firearms. The new law is to take effect July 1.
apnews.comOur state has already decided not to follow gun laws
So I have to drive to the 2nd closest gun store instead of the closest now
it does suck though, because Virginia had the best gun laws in the country (tied with Wyoming for 1st)
and now we'll lose our spot, even if in-practice the state has said you can pass whatever gun laws you want to feel better about yourself, we're ignoring them
Democrats also hate to be reminded of this fact
someone brought it up to the Lt. governor and he said something about how "Even if they don't enforce our laws, Republicans will have to live with themselves knowing they're doing bad things"
Virginia started it,
the governor before Youngkin threatened some stupid law, and everyone realized it was being written for the people in Fairfax/DC and nowhere else
and you can just decide to cite federal law instead of state law
which in this case, is 2A
it's actually got a stronger legal case than immigration sanctuary cities do, which are also legal despite being stupid concepts

This 100% came out of the China meeting
Nigeria is Chinese clay, and giving the US the head of some ISIS guy is a good stroke to Trump's ego
Russia/China have divied up most of West and Central Africa, we've mostly been fucking around in the South
North Africa and East Africa are actual messes that are going to tear themselves apart any day

If you're obsessed with being ideological consistent and purity test everyone constantly, you are a faggot
Sucks that Ed Gallrein is sorta a nothing person, but I'm so done with Massie smugposting like Nick Fuentes constantly

Which is probably why they are trying to make the AI datacenter bullshit and force consumers out of computing. They want anyone using the internet to be monitored and potentially on their servers or they can't be a part of modernity. That way they can suppress the public because the guilt trip no longer works
https://x.com/Awk20000/status/2057192540353519811 @Dolfin since you'd probably care the most, frogan defaulted on the jew v muslim lawsuit and lost
The clerk in the Ethan Klein & Frogan case has entered default judgement on the court dockett
How do you choose to just not respond
You could literally write your own response for free and not just loose automatically
He settled 1, won 1, and now is starting 1-2 more
truly, the most jewish activity
Replying to Dolfin #dolfinmaster 50k raised for nothing
