  • Join city council meetings and tell your city to adopt Ranked Choice Voting. This is often done through city charter amendment. Find your local RCV group and support them. Educate people about RCV what RCV is and what it is not. Keep it non-partisan. You don’t have to vote for somebody you don’t want to. That is also engaging in politics whether you like it or not.

  • What's the most stupid trend (or fad) you participated in yourself?
  • Voting and not voting in this system are the same decision. Either way you’re pissing somebody off and either way you don’t get what you want. Imagine thinking not voting is rebellious rather than the default. You should want and be empowered to vote for somebody, not against.

  • I’m exercising my right not to vote. That’s as much of a liberty as voting. Being disenfranchised is voting in a system that doesn’t work for you.

    If you care about democracy, tell your congressperson to support the Fair Representation Act!
    p2a.co Take Action: Ask your U.S Representative to support the Fair Representation Act!

    I just emailed my U.S. Representative, asking them to support the Fair Representation Act! Join me by doing the same: [@campaign]

    Take Action: Ask your U.S Representative to support the Fair Representation Act!

    The Fair Representation Act has been re-introduced in Congress. This bold solution can stop gerrymandering and make Congress work for every American.

    The Fair Representation Act can solve partisan gerrymandering, make every congressional district competitive, and encourage politicians to represent all of us instead of just their base. It does this by combining three reforms:

    • Multi-member districts. In three- or five-member districts, nearly every voter will elect a candidate they support. Voters like Massachusetts Republicans and Oklahoma Democrats will be represented in Congress. Gerrymandering will become nearly impossible.

    • Ranked choice voting for all U.S. House and Senate elections. RCV frees voters to support their favorite candidates, and encourages candidates to reach out to more voters for second-choice support. When RCV is used in multi-member districts, it is a form of proportional representation.

    • Uniform rules for congressional redistricting

    The Fair Representation Act can be passed without a constitutional amendment. It truly has the potential to transform our political system and create a more inclusive and deliberative government which respects and empowers all voices.

    Who else wakes up and has to blow their nose or clear their airways every morning and why?

    I’m guessing it’s from dry air god me but even with humidifier I always have to blow my nose a bunch of times in the morning. Sometimes my lungs feel tight for a while after waking up. This happen to anybody else? Why does it happen for you?

    How can we reform the Law of War to allow heads of state and government buildings to be targeted?

    It doesn’t make any sense to me that leaders of countries can declare war with total immunity from its violence, unless they’re actually fighting themselves, which in most cases they are not.

    They have nothing to lose when they declare war, so why should they be allowed to put all of us at risk?

    How can the Laws of War be changed to hold politicians accountable for their actions and make them think long and hard before engaging in wars? Maybe alternatively, all politicians including the president/PM/leader should have to serve in the military as well.

    Does anybody else feel guilty being suspicious of anybody in a black hoodie with the hood up?

    Specifically because I live in a hot climate, I'm always fighting the feeling of being suspicious of anybody I pass in the streets with a hoodie pulled up. I feel guilty because of racial profiling associated with hoodies, but gotta protect myself and my family, especially because in many cases the perpetrators of assault and murder seen in media are somebody with a hood and/or mask on.

    Did Lemmy remove infinite scrolling or is it just a setting? I see a next button now.

    If they removed infinite scrolling I think this is awesome! Infinite scrolling is addictive and related to multiple detrimental psychological effects.

    Does discussion around forced sterilization (NOT EUGENICS) get me banned?

    Hello. Wondering if discussion around forced sterilization that has nothing to do with genetics will get me banned.

    For example: if a pedophile rapes and impregnates a child they could be a candidate for forced sterilization.

    Has nothing to do with eugenics. Completely void of using genetics to identify a person.

    Thanks!
