Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

People should be reminded to vote.
People also need to be reminded that the 2 party system is a policy choice made by Republicans and the Democrats. We can be free to vote how we want. We can have no spoiler effect. We can have a race to the top, not a race to the bottom.
I hope doing things your way works if yall are truly ride or die on First-past-the-post voting. To continue to try the same thing and expecting different results... maybe it could work. The chance isnt 0%, i will admit that. Its gotta work after all.
This is where I would usually post videos on the flaws of First-past-the-post voting alongside videos going over alternative voting systems with no spoiler effect.
Those days have passed us by. Good luck everyone.
I think the states are going to get to a simple majority vote for president in the foreseeable future.
STV + MRP is almost a no-brainer for house elections and may even be able to be implemented at the state level without congressional approval. Senate elections are harder IMHO.
