okay does anyone know how parliamentary elections work?
is it like in the US where if you vote for a third party you spoiled your vote?
how do all these little parties manage to get in?
They form coalitions
ya but like
let's say that hypothetically I'm voting in a parliamentary election
and I want the nationalists to get in
should I vote for the nationalists even if they're small?
Depends on how small
or is it better to vote for the conservatives that have a better chance of winning?
I don't know much about poland
idk if EU parliament elections work the same for each country
they might
you have to reach a certain threshold to get one representative. You could have ten parties at <2% and none of them would get a representative. In some countries it is regional but in others it is national as in the representative represents Anarcho Primitivists from across the country rather than trying to get a single district to overwhelmingly vote AnPrim. I don't know which countries are which way.
(not all facts above are confirmed true facts)
okay that sounds better than hoping my hypothetical district goes full identitarian
God Dam it 😦
I was in there for a while chief
My mic working Now @fgtveassassin
How do you request that your mic get unmuted? 😶
@Karl you can tag anyone with a green name and we'll talk over DMs. It was probably a hotmic during a fireside.
@Karl sure thing. You are unmuted. When going into firesides be aware that your settings on different devices and different servers may carry over to this one in unexpected ways such that you will be on sound-activation when you are normally on push to talk and then everyone hears you singing Italian Opera during Patrick's activism roundup.
that terrifies me so I always triple check the mute button.
Wow, New York legislature is a bunch of savages.

@Freiheit - CA there was an excellent tweet earlier today from a woman who had just given birth. I couldn't find it and this guy says it is because they deleted it. He recounts the relevant details though.

with this law and the Covington kids it feels like they could actually lose a lot of support all at once for the first time since 2016.
That was a great tweet, of course it had to get shut down.
Try to screenie things lol
Guess HuffPo writers will have to learn to code!
They can all just go become engineers for the self driving trucks that replaces truckers. Did I say replace? I meant new career opportunity receivers
I definitely thought Buzzfeed would go the way of Gawker first
I’ll take either tho tbh
Guys it's all in the way you frame things. They weren't *fired* they were *put on a new course*
