They're not wrong. Lemmy across all its instances has a real hall monitor vibe. It's because most people here are both trans and in IT.

I'm not saying it would either help them or hurt them. I think many people totally ignore that fact that if the election rules and law were changed in the United States, then campaign strategies would change too. Both the Democratic and Republican parties have enough resources and power to able to adapt.
Well of course they do, the electoral college was made specifically so that states with the most population aren't the ones solely determining the outcome. If you got rid of the EC, the elections would come down to California, Florida, New York, and Texas.
Which ironically, given how Florida and Texas lean, would not "kill the Republican party" as some are claiming here.
My tip would be to try finding German instances. Generally, Germans do this fediverse stuff right, they use it for everyday chill stuff in contrast to Americans who just want to discuss politics and gender all day long.
what did you think would happen when unelected elites start appointing Commissioners for Truth?
After all, as many were keen to point out during the EU/Musk row, there’s no free speech in Europe so why should there be private speech?
