Why are links from The Guardian posted so often here?

Lol what

Shouldn’t be an issue if drivers used it as a more advanced cruise control. Unless there is catastrophic mechanical or override failure, these things will always be the driver’s fault.

Why did you reply to my comment? Seems like a waste of time.

Wish you the best man. Try to get outside and take a walk every now and again. Think about the things and people directly in your community. Ground yourself in your slowly progressing, small, and immediate environment.

I see one screenshot and the Atlantic article is paywalled.

Why did you post this? Seems like a waste of time.

I mean Daily Mail should set off an alarm for any sentient being.

Are you referring to the swing states? They have to appeal to those states because they already have the other states locked in, but they can’t just ignore the places they usually get votes each election either. Part of the reason the Republicans won the popular vote this year is because many counties flipped from Democrat to Republican. They aren’t appealing to swing states artificially, they are trying to win the votes of a population that votes either direction and isn’t practically a guarantee.

Those red areas are in fact not empty, there are people who live in those regions. That map was made by a redditor here : https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/6914AUEoEf. When I initially saw the post (a few years ago), I verified the information presented at that time. You are of course free to double check.

What you are proposing gives complete power of the elections to small spheres of influence in the US. Candidates only have to appease to people who live in the cities to win. I don’t see how this can be seen as a good thing. The current system forces candidates to get both the rural and urban residents’ votes to win.

In the case of this election. The Republicans won the popular vote, so by your logic they should have won this year anyways.

Even so, if you look at voting distribution on a US map. Densely populated urban centers vote blue and there are large swathes of land that vote red. Do you propose that the people who live in these densely populated areas should have the power to choose the president every election?

In my view, the fact that the elections are close and both parties win is evidence that the system works.

My negative opinion predates the Trump administration. I never liked how they speak so confidently with limited and unsubstantiated evidence.

There tends to be a general distaste toward politicians in general among the scientific community.

Why should all the densely populated urban centers be the only people with control over the federal election?

Of course you would be uncomfortable with that because you’re an atheist… You’re an atheist. The US has freedom of religion, this freedom also applies to government officials.

If this is true how to democrats win elections?

Go back to reddit with your violent calls to action.

This could be balanced. Perhaps the balls’ mass aren’t uniformly distributed.

It is a no brainer dude. Absolutely take the leave. You know how the work culture is here in the US, it’s pretty ridiculous. The “Live to Work” crowd is getting pretty old now though so I have seen a shift in corporate culture where I am at.

I wonder what could possibly make you think that. Perhaps it is mentioned in the post.
