gradenko_2000 posted:Good thread on how a "two-state solution" is something that you can't just say without considering a lot of obstacles given how deep-seated the status quo is with regards to settlements: oh and those settlers? they're all batshit insane and would rather fight back against the Israeli government than give up their stolen land to Palestinians.

punk rebel ecks posted:I mean what is the most realistic option to achieve ranked based voting nationwide? Maine has the city of Portland doing it for mayoral elections, and a people's referendum for it to be used in all (However Maine constitution says a plurality can be a winner and the way Maine's law is written would cause some issues for only 3 of 10 positions.) Some places have counties or introducing similar legislation for statewide considerations. Even if you live in a small town, having it be the local rule can have the movement gain more traction and move to larger scopes. Couple quick links with more info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting_in_the_United_States http://www.fairvote.org/new_ranked_choice_voting_in_states#2017_legislation_advancing_ranked_choice_voting

STV is pretty neat too, for representational allocation issues like Gerrymandering, which it's basically RCV + Smash three or so areas together and then send three or so (depending on areas merged) reps for the super-area, with assumedly more representational choices.

I don't remember anymore. the big issues that i recall were the problems with the obamacare rollout. both the overblown website bullshit and the real but underdiscussed problems w/r/t affordability that are baked into a private insurance system by design it was absurd how the website being broken became a proxy for every problem with obamacare because that was the only thing republicans and the media talked about Shear Modulus has issued a correction as of 04:38 on Sep 7, 2017 |

tbh as impossible as it would be to accomplish a single state run by non-assholes is much more tenable than two states at this point imo.

There was only one star wars movie that was good. It was New Hope, all the other movie fans should be gulaged.
