I’m sorry but short of a revolution (which is unlikely), or slow, measured positive change over the course of decades (which we’d still have to fight hard for), we’re stuck with a two party system and you shouldn’t blame people for sticking with the lesser of two evils. I do agree that Liberals can be heavy handed with their bans, but I guess they’re doing so to keep the discourse focused. Trump is a very real and immediate threat who might commit far more heinous crime if he becomes the president again.

“Settlers” is such mild terminology. We should be calling them “colonizers”. Tbf though, the Pilgrims and other early American settlers were no pacifists. That’s just the image public education and the media has painted for us.
If this is indeed real, can somebody please point me to the paper/text? That introduction has piqued my curiosity and I wanna read the whole thing, even if the math might be incomprehensible.
Lurker checking in to acknowledge my shame. I like that the fediverse has better discourse than reddit and I want to contribute to it. It’s just that I have been a lurker for so long that it’s gonna take some time to start actively engaging.
“…women as second-class citizens”. Dude, you’re the ones trying to limit access to female reproductive care.
And waste my vote in a de-facto two party, first-past-the-post system, thereby accelerating the downfall of democracy? No, thank you. They might both be pieces of shit, but one is significantly less so than the other.
