    Honestly I can’t wait for ranked choice voting to take hold too - but it won’t without violent revolution in my lifetime. That’s kind of the issue we find ourselves in. Politicians are constantly shown unwilling to hold themselves accountable, they are essentially unpoliceable (though I’m hoping that we’re seeing this change). This sham as fuck country is balls-deep in corruption, and at the risk of sounding like trump-tard, there are some pretty clear instances where Dems seem like they are not willing to shine a light on vote disparities. When it comes to Republicans, every accusation is a confession. I’m pretty sure Dems are aware of this shit going on too, but are unwilling to rock the boat because they’re afraid of what’s coming – the American people being untrusting in our elections.

    That’s part of what all of this bullshit stems from in the first place. There’s a minority in this country that make garbage laws for people they don’t govern. I’m living in it right now. DeSanctimonious and his “don’t say gay” laws are bullshit. All of the books being stripped from libraries right now, is backwards. I am literally sick of hearing about it constantly. I don’t want to talk about it, I want to talk to people about things that matter. I want to discuss how to help people fix their cars. I want to teach people how to design and engineer robots. I don’t give a shit who you are. I would actually take JOY in never knowing another persons name, gender, gender identity, sex, child status, marriage status, etc ever again. That’s what’s so wonderful about the internet and conversations like these. Nobody ever brings it up! It’s a wonderful place and I wish the real world were the same.
