No I like FPTP

2019-10-10 17:04:05 UTC  

it gives legitimacy to the winner

2019-10-10 17:04:11 UTC  

proportional representation for me tbh

2019-10-10 17:04:21 UTC  

What? US has FPTP?

2019-10-10 17:04:23 UTC  

where?

2019-10-10 17:04:35 UTC  

by making wins look larger than they are

2019-10-10 17:05:02 UTC  

but it @Nathan James 123 I do see the argument for proportional as it relates to strengthening Policial parties

2019-10-10 17:05:05 UTC  

afaik if nobody wins presidentials, electors have free hand

2019-10-10 17:05:18 UTC  

or is that not so?

2019-10-10 17:05:21 UTC  

You need to break out of the two party system

2019-10-10 17:05:25 UTC  

Which is causing you so many issues.

2019-10-10 17:05:31 UTC  

You better shut your white male mouth up right FUCKING now

2019-10-10 17:05:36 UTC  

You can only vote on either side of the extreme spectrum

2019-10-10 17:05:39 UTC  

There's no middle-ground

2019-10-10 17:05:43 UTC  

Which is your fundamental problem

2019-10-10 17:05:50 UTC  

And why Russia was so effective in 2016

2019-10-10 17:05:55 UTC  

You're too divided.

2019-10-10 17:06:06 UTC  

And that shows in your parties

2019-10-10 17:06:20 UTC  

@Nathan James 123 thats because the parties are too weak

2019-10-10 17:06:32 UTC  

@Nathan James 123 they never used to be so insne

2019-10-10 17:06:35 UTC  

Which I think stems from their extremism

2019-10-10 17:06:41 UTC  

They were never this extreme either

2019-10-10 17:06:59 UTC  

YOU'RE EXTREME. YOU THINK LATINOS AT THE BOARDER SHOULD BE GASSED

2019-10-10 17:07:04 UTC  

As they've moved further to the left and the right, they've weakened and discontent has risen

2019-10-10 17:07:12 UTC  

and I think your discounting the idea that in the US system Proportional representation would lead to a BUNCH of extreme parties instead of Two large parties who have to marginalize their radicals @Nathan James 123

2019-10-10 17:07:29 UTC  

I do take your point

2019-10-10 17:07:54 UTC  

Honestly, both systems have their merits

2019-10-10 17:08:03 UTC  

Well, there would be more centre learning parties people could vote for. Rather than voting for one party and getting open borders, and the other offering closed borders

2019-10-10 17:08:08 UTC  

A nice middle ground can be found

2019-10-10 17:08:17 UTC  

@Nathan James 123 I think the weakening of the parties happened first, then the extremeism came in

2019-10-10 17:08:26 UTC  

Possibly so

2019-10-10 17:08:32 UTC  

A combination of one proportional and one majority chamber of parliament is a decent solution

2019-10-10 17:08:52 UTC  

I don't know how that would work tbh @leavethisbotnet

2019-10-10 17:09:12 UTC  

You have one chamber that is voted in with proportional system

2019-10-10 17:09:17 UTC  

There is no closed border party. Trump at no point even suggested ending immigration just illegal immigration.

2019-10-10 17:09:34 UTC  

you have second chamber (like senate) that is voted in with mojority voting system

2019-10-10 17:09:41 UTC  

like FPTP, but less retarded

2019-10-10 17:09:42 UTC  

You understood my poin though @Jym

2019-10-10 17:09:48 UTC  

The message I was conveying

2019-10-10 17:10:09 UTC  

Would they have equal power? @leavethisbotnet

2019-10-10 17:10:17 UTC  

Honestly the Republicans are the centrist party at this point
