That’s how FPtP works, especially with the spoiler effect increasing partisanship over time. (though the right might be split in 2024 for the obvious reason)
Also the way primaries work… Such low participation that only the radical voters turn out.
To me the thing I didn’t like about Reddit was how it was too focused on US politics. For example, r/worldnews was mostly news from US. It should’ve been just r/news lol, nothing to do with world.
I am an Italian living in America, so I know what you mean. But Italians can definitely throw no stones about crazy politicians getting elected.
As an American it feels more like “50.1% life stays the same” “49.9% life gets existentially worse for anyone not a white Christian male”
Rich white Christian male, the poor ones are just too dumb to notice they voted in people who despise them
Good point
Any somehow the red side still ends up with more power even as minority. Fucking crazy.
