dang i'm sorry i missed this. this is so fun!

I cannot see a poll here. Obviously, I'm going with "not Hitler." That seems sane.

[–] Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

High five for not Hitler. I swear it must be the widespread lead poisoning. Maybe we should double-check for hookworms too. They might be causing a loss of cognitive function.

It was the intentional dismantling of our educational system. I had a long conversation with Mom yesterday before polls closed on EST, and, yeah ... I was at the tail end of competent education, and it wasn't all that competent. I was told by the English department to never try writing because I was disinterested in regurgitating their takes on historical works, after getting my only F in high school for graphic design in beginning yearbook.

Guess what two things I'd then go on to win national awards for? You can't expect every high school student to take those as Wet Paint signs and then have things weirdly coalesce in college.

Click through to the website! It's not a lemmy-embedded poll. I was confused at first, too.

Condorcet

Nice.

edit: for those who aren't aware

  • Kamala Harris

[X] I refuse to rank or vote for any other candidates.

Rank Choices that are intentionally left uncast and unwritten >

  • Donald Trump
  • All other candidates.
[–] Vodulas@beehaw.org 7 points 3 days ago

Sadly, no ranked choice here, so Kamala Harris on my official ballot. If I had ranked choice it would be:

  1. Claudia de la Cruz

  2. Cornell West

  3. Kamala Harris

[–] hedge@beehaw.org 4 points 3 days ago
  1. Bernie Sanders
  2. Cornell West
  3. Sherrod Brown
[–] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

So far there is a great love for Vermin Supreme

[–] FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 days ago

As deserved. The pony handouts aren’t going to happen by themselves.

[–] petrescatraian@libranet.de 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

@alyaza can I vote even if I'm not a US citizen? Haha

[–] alyaza@beehaw.org 4 points 3 days ago
