It’s called Duverger’s law if you’re actually interested in expanding your understanding on the topic and not acting in bad faith.

This isn’t something to be debated, it’s really just how the math of FPTP works out. CGP Gray has a really good video on the topic as well- that’s what the previous commenter linked to. I’d recommend giving it a watch.

It isn’t a gotcha and you have no point

It is though, that’s the biggest problem with FPTP voting

That is pretty nuts

If you have to ask you can’t afford it.

People buying 30k bottles of wine are generally the kinds of people that don’t have a “credit limit” like we’re used to. They probably also have people that go get that wine for them, and likely pay by credit card or check.

Ability to calm down and read instructions or manuals. I don’t understand people’s insistence on figuring EVERYTHING out.

Don’t get me wrong I love solving problems, but sometimes the solution to the problem is just finding the answer- literally right there. RTFM.

Am I lemmy famous yet?

Clueless is the word

Natural selection in action

I don’t have a problem with any of the communities but I regularly catch the instance ban hammer for asinine reasons.

Your equating getting a plane ticket and going to a destination to fully immigrating to a country, and they’re not at all the same thing

You can’t really be calling people ignorant while being so obviously clueless.

You cant just immigrate to another country at the drop of a hat. There’s a process, and a lot of times stringent requirements particularly for Western European countries if you aren’t already living in the EU.

Yeah that’s the same way the US military operates to varying degrees.

Way before TikTok yeah. I remember almost the exact same headlines like 15 years ago in middle school.

I remember this being a thing before tik tok

What’s nuts is it doesn’t require raising taxes, our government is absurdly bloated and lots of people have strong incentives to keep it that way

Property in the city is worth more

If you’re white, wealthy, and sterile Texas has excellent healthcare

This is what will happen.
