Dems can be convinced to try other election systems besides FPTP because they fundamentally believe in democracy. From my perspective, fixing things without violence is still an option with Dems. It isn't with Republicans.

Westerners will go on and on about how North Koreans are brainwashed to worship their leaders, then say shit like this.

fixing things without violence

Apparently doing the modern holocaust doesn't' count as "violence" to white supremacist BlueMAGA fascists.

I'm hoping Musk gets some momentum with his third party. Either it splits the Republican vote and slows down this freefall into fascism, or he dumps tons of resources into promoting some variety of RCV. Either way, that's a net benefit in my eyes.
