"Quit complaining about how rigged the voting system is and just vote! Its the only system we have, can't change it so stop complaining"

Is that right?

How can we change it if not telling everyone we know what a steaming pile of shit it all is and that it is clearly rigged and needs change? The voting part is the part not working because of how it is set up to be rigged.

Ranked choice is the answer. Not whatever farce this is that they are doing.

That's right. Complain and do nothing. Voting never works. Your correct. I apologize.

Nope not what I said. The current way they are doing the voting is a steaming pile of shit that needs changed.

Ranked choice is pretty much the only answer. So I'm going to advocate for that strongly and make sure I point out how fucked and broken this current system is to anyone who will listen because that is how you change it. Not by saying "shut up and vote the way it is right now" like you said.
