Pardon me for not finding “vulnerable people need to die for my ideology” very convincing. (mbin.grits.dev)

You need a different voting system for third parties to be viable

Genuinely not trying to be a dick, but I don't understand what your response means?

[-] Jimmyeatsausage@lemmy.world 5 points 8 months ago

The response means, "I agree, but it's not relevant to the topic at hand."

Yes, we need a better system. In the meantime, we need to work with what we have.

OK. The op mentioned voting third parties so my comment was a response to that. Thanks for explaining thou

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 months ago

I agree. The problem is getting a new voting system to be implemented. Neither of the two parties want third parties to get a decent shot at dethroning them, so the two parties right now, are not going to willingly go for a new voting system since the current one ensures that they only have one rival during elections.

It doesn't benefit either party, so neither is going to agree to change it.
