i think the entire dichotomy is changing

2018-06-16 19:44:16 UTC  

can we just take a moment and laugh at dems who said the election would be a hillary landslide

in votes yes
in electoral college bullshit meant to actually undermine the principle of democracy no.

2018-06-16 19:44:53 UTC  

popular vote should not control the entire country

don't @ me if you think electoral college is 'democratic'

2018-06-16 19:45:21 UTC  

i can't post pictures here

2018-06-16 19:45:29 UTC  

but in <#450438542485749782> you'll see the 2016 election county-scale map

Democracy is literally from Demos Krato meaing 'power to the people'
a democracy is inherently one where the majority rules.
Making a system that fights against that is anti-democratic

population distribution is inherently uneven

dems dont even believe in the popular vote, otherwise Bernie wouldve won the primaries

that's not the point, I'm not a democrat myself

2018-06-16 19:46:01 UTC  

yeah you're worse

2018-06-16 19:46:02 UTC  

:dab:

i'm pointing out that it is literally **anti democratic**

2018-06-16 19:46:39 UTC  

a direct democracy would actually improve the country relative to where it is now

2018-06-16 19:46:48 UTC  

Yes

2018-06-16 19:46:50 UTC  

cant say long term how it plays out

2018-06-16 19:47:11 UTC  

1) destroy the electoral college

2018-06-16 19:47:34 UTC  

2) enact instant runoff voting

2018-06-16 19:47:40 UTC  

3) ...

2018-06-16 19:47:48 UTC  

4) profit?

@svpreme the only voting system that actually gives everyone's vote's value regardless of who votes in STV

like for congress and stuff

2018-06-16 19:50:40 UTC  

yeah

but it's confusing as fuck i'll post in <#450438542485749782>

so i doubt the people in power want even more representatives they have to some how bribe to stay in power

2018-06-16 20:46:52 UTC  

votes are 1:1

2018-06-16 20:47:01 UTC  

electoral college is poop

2018-06-16 21:27:26 UTC
