The party in power is elected by regional representatives, not a mob
I didn't say I don't know what is going on or how things work. I said the way you elect your ruler is a form of affirmitive action.
No it isn't lol
That's like saying "we both paid for this pool but my family has more people so I should own it more"
Women being over represented as teachers and men being over represented at coal miners is choice. So is more blacks being in basketball and whites in hockey.
It’s not tranny to allow people to make choices.
As an asian my score on a test is not worth the same as a afirican american on the same test.
However it is to block people from having a say in government. Especially local.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
That's because someone is working against the way the system is advertised to work to discriminate based on arbitrary characteristics
And they do so to get a set quota, to basically decide on an outcone
```I didn't say I don't know what is going on or how things work. I said the way you elect your ruler is a form of affirmitive action.```
Yes, and we've been explaining why that's not a valid comparison
Affirmative action is working against the basis of a given system for a desired outcome
And you’re wrong.
You never fielded a good argument for your case.
The electoral college is a method by which states in a union send representatives to vote for their country's leadership
You’re deliberately ignoring the differences between affirmative action and representation government.
That’s not a win for you
I don't care on what basics it is being used on. It doesn't change what it is when it's applyed to population instead on race.
Again, it's like saying the UN is affirmative action because the US doesn't have 10 representatives
UK
It isn’t the same.
"I don't care what the differences are, I'll just restate my assertion"
I'm staying on point.
No, you're just ignoring incoming information
Are countries in europe different then poppy?
The basis for the United States is not a system of mob rule
I know how and why the votes are counted the way they are in the US.
It is, in fact, designed exactly against that
Then you know that it's not the same thing, and you're just being obtuse
The point behind an interview is to get the best person for the job
The point behind the US system is to elect leadership based on State representatives
Affirmative action undermines the primary goal of hiring
The electoral college secures the primary goal of the US system
In my country one persons vote is counted the same as any ohters. Unlike a black person with the same grades as another when it comes to applying to uni.
That's because you live in one state. The US is many states
@Beemann YOu are not explaining why the two thing are differnet. YOu are just telling me why you like one of them.
No, you're just being obtuse
You live in one state, when you join up with other states (say for the EU) each state sends a representative
The notion that you ought to enter a union where you will be deliberately underrepresented is silly
