Actually no, details don't matter! Women's suffrage ran on the idea they deserved the right to vote. They didn't start out demanding a constitutional amendment specifically and immediately ๐Ÿ˜€. The civil rights movement didn't detail how to repeal Jim Crow laws and last out step by step how to integrate the black community . Please read a book, educate yourself on how change occurs instead of constantly saying it can't happen and doing your best to make it so (by doing nothing). The idea that you need a step by step plan to fix injustice or it's not possible is insane.

Edit: also, until you get the least bit of education, I can't engage with you any further. You're utterly exhausting, sorry!

I am literally laughing out loud.

Just to remind you, my original point was that it was impossible to get 'first past the post' voting changed before the next election cycle.

You claimed it was possible to do it.

When I asked how, in detail, you responded by talkign about a movement that took decades to achieve their end.

You are like an angry child who wanted to play with the big kids, got scored on repeatedly, and is now running away mad that they didn't play fair.

Thanks, I needed a few laughs today!
