Ranked Choice Voting is our quickest, most accessible path towards ending the two-party monopoly that our Electoral College has created and it will increase voter turnout because more Americans will feel their votes can matter more. Voter apathy is what has allowed the far-right to accrue so much power.
In Alaska’s new election system, it “gave citizens greater choice and elevated the most broadly appealing candidates, in turn improving representation.”

"We've always done it that way"
Is not an acceptable answer or justification.
@TonyStark Cause the police have nothing better to do with their time.
@bmacDonald94 True, but they’re wasting their time going to the White House. They’d have as much luck at the local Piggly Wiggly. @benjancewicz

House Democrats will always protect Social Security and Medicare.
@benjancewicz What, exactly, do they think the White House can do? They should chain themselves to the Knesset. @bmacDonald94

So in Texas, you can now be arrested (along with your doctors) if you have a miscarriage and you can be arrested on site for "suspicion" of being "illegal" (meaning if you have brown skin).
A large amount of accounts on this platform seem to be too consumed with yelling at American Jews to even care about what’s going on here.

On the way home yesterday, @sheilasmall and I stopped at the most wonderful little Bonsai farm off I-10 near Marianna FL. This is what I bought.
@kolev We eat that a lot, although sometimes it’s mashed taters instead of mac & cheese. @shekinahcancook@babka.social

Given the alternative is authoritarian fascism… yes.
I’m all for putting pressure on candidates and trying to get better candidates, but it’s unlikely anyone on our side other than Bidenis going to win the next general election. Yes, we’re being held hostage, but not by the Dems.
@QasimRashid I had to revisit your comment here. You say “you keep bringing up Hamas,” yet this is the first time you and I have had the conversation, so I can only assume. When you use the word “you,” you are referring to Jews in general. Since the first thing on your list was freeing the hostages, you have to mention Hamas, since they took the hostages.

@pewnack I ask everyone who comes along demanding instant peace and offering solutions like “returning the hostages,” “sending Bibi to The Hague,” and “getting rid of illegal settlers.” Yes. We all want that. But unless you have a recommendation as to HOW, just STFU already. @QasimRashid
@pewnack I’m good with the end of Netanyahu. Overlooking intelligence is not the same thing as killing, torturing, and capturing innocent civilians. I want them both to face justice. I simply ask how you propose to accomplish that. @QasimRashid
