ranked choice isn’t going to fix shit, proportional or go home

and what has that gotten us? rural communities are subsidized out the wazoo as the urban centers across America are strangled and starved. as the more powerful minority of people is catered too

a lot of that profit is derived from a set of rug pulls that only work because he had the money of the victims to keep pushing his image in the media

they have some perks, privileges and exceptional powers no democratic country would give to them

wait until you learn about the supreme court in the USA

that’s why all you have to do to target civilians is claim that there are missiles in each and every home! add a cool animation showing how every house is 60% storage for a single red missile of varying different dimensions, and you got an airtight case!

This just in, child online upset that people recommend the open source solution to an issue caused by proprietary crap.

In other news, OP who had said question responds to helpful suggestion with “Cool!!!”

We at OPBR (Orrk Public Broadcast Radio, your favorite pirate news satire group) think that someone needs to cool their beans

ok, I’m sorry that you are upset that in a closed system like Microsoft you often don’t have a choice with organizations ramming their enshitification into your user experience. but some stupid hate against people who have been working to give you an alternative is just not ok.

you’re lacking English or economic comprehension skills are no reason to start creating straw men, you’re wasting all that bedding for the rest of your fellow sheep

I’m not insulting anyone, if you feel slighted about the fact that you didn’t understand OP, nor do you understand how taxes work, then I invite you to do some basic research about tax law in the US, because you don’t seem to know how taxes work

that’s like the point of the entire system? I mean, I don’t want to go back to the 1800s corporate baronies that defined most industry at that point in time

ok, so I understand that you don’t quite get the issue, also your bad at taxes.

if I invest $50000 and make $100000 I don’t want to pay taxes on the $50000 I “made” (this normally would lead to the crime of not paying taxes) but if I use those $50000 as leverage on an extremely low interest loan for $50000 then I dodge having to pay anything in taxes while also, defacto, realizing my gains.

what OP is advocating for is taxing those $50000 you put up as collateral, making these $50000 similar to the original $50000 you invested, now should you again make another $20000 from said capital, and pull out, you would still have to pay capital gains on those $20000, or do you think you have to pay capital gains on money you put in? (hence why you’re bad at taxes) because tax is only levied on the positive difference

Fun fact, over here vacation days you don’t take are paid out, at overtime rates.

damn, if only we could categorize the actions of genocidal, xenophobic, ethno-states… maybe with some well known example that everyone knows is evil

nah, farm, we already saw the American “red line” against gas attacks in Syria, the answer has always been “do nothing”, also the American MIC would never sell gas, not enough margin, now mining companies on the other hand

it’s not a no true Scotsman fallacy, it’s the literal fact that the IDF has laid siege to Gaza, refused entry to any foreign journalists, lead targeted strikes against those who were still in Gaza, killing the journalists and destroying their equipment, do you think that these war corespondents had some plaentier to scry over the wars they reported on or something?

This is the kind of hyperbole

no, it’s not hyperbole, please look up what many members of the Israeli government actually want, they are literally international wanted terrorists who’s sole missions is the extermination of the Palestinian peoples, that’s why they are literally referred to as “human animals”, “Canaanites”(a people that historically were genocided by the Israeli, even according to their own holy texts), are blamed for the holocaust (yes really).

the native tribes of Oklahoma are:

1. mainly dead
2. didn’t colonize areas people already lived, forcing them out at the end of a barrel
3. don’t have a fucking apartheid state

tho, it’s not surprising that someone who supports the Israeli settler colonial project would unironically pull “what if we have the Native Americans their land back”, a group of people who the US still saw as literal second class humans during WW1 and still had as second class residents during the 70s

but if you believe the Indians should stay in their reservations, I guess any stance other than brutal settler colonialism is meaningless.

now wouldn’t it be something if the Israeli government didn’t help Hamas win the civil war in Gaza, and have been supporting them by outlawing any secular alternatives?

dude, are you comparing the current far right, xenophobe, government trying to create an ethno-theocracy to Nazis? that’s anti-Semitic.

what, you’re going to say they both saw fit to commit genocide to gain “Lebensraum”, have an ideology of racial hierarchy and superiority, spread conspiracy theories that their chosen targets are actually at fault for every bag thing that happened to them, and of course spread the 14 words (with very slight modification) while portraying their “enemies” as literal “human animals”?

no, they would just do nothing
