Exactly and then based on that number what we SHOULD do is do proportionality based on that in the most even way possible. But then the issue is states like delaware with almost double Wyoming population would still be unequal since they would still get 1 representative but would be more fair for California. Congress shouldn't have a capped number. Every population of Wyoming size should have one representative in Congress this would give California 68

Most people don't get streaming content because commercials most people got it because that is where they content is and you can choose. When you want it.

Streaming services didn't make money when money was cheap to loan. Now money is expensive to get. Company needs to make profit rather than constantly taking in funding . Commercials make money. It kept tv and radio afloat. Streaming is still better than tv

I think it is becoming overwhelming clear news doesn't care about lives unless it makes them money. They will never let a shutdown happen in the foreseeable future.

It isn't violence it is threatening violence to someone who is threatening sexual assault. Women are being advocated to be SAed they should advocate defending themselves

Didn't make a difference in the swing states they had record breaking turns outs. The drop in votes came in other states that were deicided already settled

The swing states that decided it had record breaking turn outs except Pennsylvania where it was just shy. She lost last i check on Friday by just over 250k votes in 4 states. Around 250k votes flipped causing her to lose. No 3rd party votes for green party would have flipped this election last I checked

Issue is a 3 party system is only going to give us a far right wing party, a right wing party and a centrist party that has to vote for right wing party or the far right wing party will win. A 3rd party won't help. Election reform has to happen first. The only thing we can hope for is a progressive movement inside the democratic party. That sweeps then getting election reform. Then we can get ranked choice or whatever system .

She was to young this election but next....

[–] BaldManGoomba@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

In all the swing states they were less than the difference between the two parties.

Eessentially Democrats last i checked and calculated on Friday lost 4 swing states that would change the outcome by around 250k votes.

The problem as I see it and right now we need to wait for more information is they went to the right and thought they could pick up Republicans there is a report that says all the registered Republicans voted republican (don't know accuracy) except 6% in 2020 and 5%2024. So they picked up no one when they should have went full leftists revolutionary change. They didn't when despite having the most amount of money so they don't even need to court the gazillionaires if they are just going to lose.

I don't want to hold power i don't want to be the one. It's not something I want to do. BUT if the fucking people i choose don't want to do what I ask them to do i guess I will fucking do it my self.

I imagine a lot of people were supporting people in power currently or thinking the people they were electing were more qualified and were trying. The democratic party with their move to the right shows they don't. This inspires people to do it themselves. There is lots of self doubt and reflection in leftists lives. Someone can do it better someone is more experienced, more qualified, deserving or older. Until people drop the ball enough or rage and revolutionary fires are sparked that is when people do things.

Like 9-10 million votes are yet to be counted.

In every swing state except PA. There was record breaking ballots cast. In PA it was close to the record. She lost the election because bad policies not people not showing up. People changed their mind in the 6 swings states. Idk why or what for but this election wasn't lost because of 10 million people not voting it was lost by my calculations 275,092 votes in 4 states.

I'll wait until the count is over to check if she earned more votes in the 6 swing states than biden in 2020. But lots more votes to count again like 10 million yet to be counted almost all in states that are pretty much decided so they didn't make a difference anyway
