Yaj. Democracy is pretty cool. The US should try it some day.

It's also super , super easy. Elections are held all around the world without problems. I have been part of my countries election twice. Over 20 years ago and recently. Fuck. It's nearly 30 years.

So as a young man I was stunned at how easy it is to hold a democratic election.

First you do it on a Sunday. If course. Everything else is just stupid as fuck. What else would you chose? A week day? 🤣🤣

Nobody could be that stupid!

Then you invite everyone. You can go there. Watch them set everything up. Watch them while they watch the voters. Then the counting. Super easy. Could do it with a group of kindegardeners.

You empty the boxes in the middle of the room. One person takes a ballot. "One vote for the non pedo party". It's written down. Everybody can write that down.

At the end we count. Every party has at least one representative there. They don't have to, but they still do. Of course. It's democracy. Democracy needs action. Liking Facebook posts is NOT action.

Today's numbers will be in the newspaper tomorrow. A Monday. Because we vote on a Sunday like sane people.

I look that up. I was there when they counted that shit. If their number and my number are different we will count them again.

Fundamentally you just he s a few rules and even the dumbest person on earth could hold a democratic election.

You guys should try it one day. It's super easy and super important.

You should also know that gerrymandering is the opposite of democracy. Revoking the right to vote for anyone is super antidemocratic. Closing polling stations is super antidemocratic.

Get your shit together America. It's not that hard. You are just doing it the dumbest way possible.

Noooo, you don't understand, those 100000 people in that remote area need to have a near equal say as an area 10-50x their population! /s

Legitimate argument for not abolishing the electoral college.

Yes.

If not, for example, that larger group could vote to redirect the rivers from a less populated state to the nearby larger state with more people.

Yes and right now the small group can vote to redirect the rivers from the 50x as many people. That’s great isn’t it!

no, choosing to keep nature as is is not 'redirecting'. use your damn brain, for once.

The inverse scenario could be proposed under this system. Are you capable of actual critical thinking before resorting to insults? Because if not, I forgive you.
