This man ran into the weirdos on Mastodon. I'm over there hanging out with people posting about ass-pennies and no one cries "content warning!" You're the one who decides who you follow and who follows you. If your hanging out with folks too sensitive for your liking, that's on you.

I'm not sure if Approval would weed out extremists in practice or not, but using the current voter behavior under FPTP and extrapolating to Approval doesn't really hold water.

Under a FPTP election you pretty much have to make a strategic decision.
Yes, actually. RCV is complicated enough that it causes poor NYC voters to submit invalid ballots at a higher rate than their rich and counterparts, something that doesn't happen with "choose one."

I've seen some polls significantly worse than that, but not in a developed country.
Basically the same thing. Might as well move to Afghanistan.
He can only pardon federal crimes, and the state of New York obviously can only prosecute state crimes
I think he can operate as president from jail.
Local noon is only solar noon in a thin strip for any given time zone, if it ever is.
That's the same advantage all the other options have, too.
