    Okay then, Mr Tankie McRussianbot, let’s all hear what fucking genuis solution you have that no one has thought of in the last thousands of years since the development of human civilisation that you believe is superior and allows everyone’s voice to be heard.

      Proportional representation, like virtually ALL new democracies. Nobody uses our broken and flawed two party system. It was cool and neat when democracy was newer and novel, but it’s super outdated.

      I’m sorry you want to bluster about how uneducated you are on the subject. It’s pretty cringe. That you resort to name calling just backs up and reinforces the angry, uneducated, cringe look.

      I hope you feel better, touch some grass, and learn that better methods of managing a democratic republic are available and have been developed. I’ll even start you off with some low effort reading:

        See you fucked up there, you could’ve been way more condescending by linking to the simple Wikipedia

          Since I’m helping out today, I’ll bite.

          They would have more success opening a conversation with someone if they forgo the insults:

          Okay then, Mr Tankie McRussianbot, let’s all hear what fucking genuis solution…

          Instead I suggest they try something like “I am not very familiar with alternatives to our two party system, what would you suggest instead?”

          I’m not their friend, I have no desire to be their friend, and honestly I was being restrained in my response b/c they were being such an asshole. But I figure it’s usually worth a try to respond with the information on the off chance they’ll read and change.

          If their feelings got hurt by the response to the angry, aggressive, insulting comment, then I’m not particularly bothered or interested.

          Hopefully, this helps them have better interactions with others in the future.

            Looks like you’re really dumb and were replying to someone else completely. However, I appreciate your links and will educate myself on the topic by reading the stuff you provided; thank you.

      Parliamentary systems with weaker heads of state tend to at very least allow a broader spread of parties and ideas to be represented.
