Not that I wanted the debate to go the way it did
I really like both. I have to have coffee in the morning so I guess if I had to pick one that would be it.
I love a good chai that will take my lunch money though
Did you make this?
It’s a European stoat, just to add a layer of irony
I suspect you’re also like me, and have a cache of reaction memes
Example:
Holy cow, it’s legit.
Amazing
I’m? Being insulted by a bot?
You’re right (I didn’t make the meme); mercury chloride was a historical multipurpose medicine.
Your comment is amazing, as an aside.
Again, see the chain, but my understanding was wrong. I was thinking ranked was you got multiple votes (1st preference, 2nd preference). That system sucks.
Yes, we’re talking about different things, it seems (also thanks for being civil in your reply). My apologies - your definition seems better than what my understanding was.
I explain my rationale in a response to the guy that I responded to. I realize it’s a thin distinction, but I think it’s an important one.
I don’t like the idea of having to vote multiple times, but it’s better than ranked choice, as with ranked you can get a person in that the majority of people didn’t vote for. If you have multiple rounds of just one vote cast, at least you’re picking the person you want each time, rather than 'i guess this person is better than person X, but i really don’t want him in.
As I alluded to, this is what happened in Alberta politics - we had 3 candidates for conservative leadership: two were very polar, and one guy was in the middle, and thus the guy in the middle won, but no one really wanted him to win. Conversely, if they had just voted regularly, the guy that won would have been kicked out since voting for him wasn’t an option. Then you could run the thing again, and get a better split between the polar candidates.
Just trying to bring it back to the good old days when children yearned for the mines, and men got blended up in industrial machinery.
