I wondered about that myself. Often, people that vote for different parties do agree about certain issues, but all that gets watered down as they are forced to just pick one party. In this day and age of technology, directly voting for plans would be quite feasible. I just don't think it's going to happen, as it would take the power away from the few and put it in the hands of the people. Exactly the reason why people like us would want this. Another more difficult issue is that you should be able to get an idea of how a certain vote would work out. To use a simple and silly example: we want no more tax. But the consequences of that would be devastating, roads crumble, no police or fire brigade. So we need a political independent and scientifically based model of reality that anyone can access and check what other effects a certain vote might have.

Conservatism has been forcefully on the rise, but something like porn can cause it's downfall. It reminds me of the videotape format wars end 70s, early 80s, with VHS pushing out Betamax due to porn.

I don't trust Elon, so I don't trust Tesla. If I would get one for free, I would immediately sell it. I'm not against electric cars in general by the way.

My banana is for sale as well. I'll throw in a whole roll of duct tape.

X has become a cesspool. I'm afraid that this harassing will only increase.

Thanks! very well done, but a horrific truth as well.
