Ranked choice wouldn't actually fix the problem. If anything it would do PR for bourgeois democracy while the exact same major forces dictated outcomes.
We can all agree on the dismantling of capitalism, class hierarchy, private property, the wage system, etc. But even for everyone else, the people who still believe in capitalism (somehow), it should be obvious that a winner-takes-all voting system where we vote for one of two parties is not even a facsimile of democracy. It's depressing actually, at least Europeans have the illusion of many different parties working directly to serve specific interests.
Of course, from our more critical lens, it may seem like a moot point.
thanks but i hate it. So many different flavors of shit and yet the stench is the same.
Ha! Well said
