Guavanaut posted:Is this pop eating itself or more people just tuning out of what's mass market popular and into their own filter bubbles/musical echo chambers? Music has always had fragmented scenes, but it's never been easier to be part of one without leaving your house. streaming has broken the singles charts because peolpe just listen to the same songs over and over

Overminty posted:I recall a brief interview with someone who worked at the charts compilation company saying that they tried to factor that in by reducing the number of listens by some arbitrary amount. googling got me a bbc article that 100 listens counts as a sale

TinTower posted:It's part of the reason why I prefer STV, as it's both preferential and proportional. Geekery about quotas and fractional transfers aside, it's pretty simple for someone to grasp: "I'd like these people elected and in this order". Is there any reason the lib dems went for AV instead of another system? I probably should have paid more attention during the referendum

Kokoro Wish posted:No it was more the "Well the Democrats haven't done poo poo for me and my life has gotten demonstrably worse under them. Hey, Trump says he'll bring us jobs and security while the Democrats are saying WE'LL GIVE YOU MORE OF WHAT YOU'VE BEEN GETTING very loudly. Guess I'll vote for him". Horrible thing is, if the Democrats had actually campaigned properly or even offered the people something other than "Well, we're not as bad as Trump!" then they probably would have won handily. That said, Democratic hubris as well as the American penchant for electoral fraud and voter purging (both parties do it) cost them their firewall in the rust belt and the election. the funny thing is they're now all going to die under his healthcare plan while he doesn't bring the jobs back

Party Boat posted:I know that there are a lot of individually poo poo US reps / senators but it feels like "congress bad" has become some kind of self reinforcing reaction. Like it's an easy, uncontroversial thing for someone who's politically unengaged to say. I get similarly frustrated when people here say "they're all as bad as each other" about our MPs, ignoring the wonderful spectrum of badness that we have. i think the general "congress bad" is probably because of how nisanely gerrymandered it is

Guavanaut posted:Hermit kingdoms have the choice between agricultural self-sufficiency and famine. We have the technology for either, but one of the two is objectively more pleasant. I can imagine us picking the other out of spite though. it would be very british to continue to inflict ourselves on the rest of the world its true

I can't really see May calling a snap election after invoking article 50 because what those 2 years really needs is a bunch of lost time on a general election but considering Davis is months into his job and has apparently done no work at all maybe it wouldn't change anything
