Does a vote of no confidence mean anything? In American orchestras, musicians have virtually no power.

Last time I distrohopped, this was actually one of my main benchmarks. If I couldn't install Librewolf in under a minute, I picked a different distro.

Honestly, there are probably enough people using ublock with tor browser that you can still retain most of the benefits if you do the same. You'll just be in a smaller cohort than if you didn't.

To play devil's advocate, yes, "w" is technically three syllables in English, but they're easy enough to blur together. Meanwhile, the actual "w" sound is comparatively labor intensive, and "-orld" even more so. We're in purple burglar alarm world.

I was so, so very wrong. And I'm quite happy about it.

What an unhinged false dichotomy. You really should make a normie conservative friend sometime. You'll find that most of them aren't the caricature depicted on Lemmy.

Ranked choice voting has already been adopted for state elections in multiple states.

The third party options that are likely to appear on the ballot in most states are RFK Jr., Chase Oliver, and Jill Stein. RFK Jr. isn't my cup of tea, but he's been polling the best of the three-- double digits last I checked, which wasn't recently. They can't accuse you of "stealing" a vote from the DNC if you weren't going to vote in the first place.

(Just kidding; they will accuse you. This is Lemmy. You're basically a fascist™ now.)

Voting is anonymous. He would have to tell someone how he voted for anyone to know. Unless you mean the primaries, in which case, he'd have to register for the party primary he wanted to vote in ahead of time. Having grown up in PA, I can tell you that it's common practice to change parties depending on which party has the more consequential primary. I've done this myself, multiple times. Maybe he's right wing. Maybe he's left wing. But Lemmy propagandists aren't going to wait to find out.
