RCV favours moderate candidates. If you are in a political extreme, you might argue that that’s not fair. But I don’t see how it not being perfect can result in a ban. Specially when the current system is more unfair.

There are many reasons you would be against china.

1. Not a democracy
2. Helping Russia in the invasion of Ukraine
3. Aims to invade Taiwan
4. You always want some amount of local manufacturing. Relying on a single supplier is never a good idea in any context if you can avoid it.
5. Helps north Korea
6. Claims international and other countries waters for itself
7. Uyghurs
8. Tibet
9. Many active border disputes due to territorial expansion aims.
10. Secret police stations to enforce it’s laws outside china
11. Hong Kong

Low prices doesn’t justify any of that.

And that (non-exclusive) list (except the 1st point) is only what affects people outside of china. There’s many other reasons to dislike the CCP that only affects the Chinese. Like mass surveillance and censorship.

I would still be programming. Just that it would be the projects I want to do, instead of the ones my employer wants to do.

You got lucky. Last time for me I waited 1hour+. Why? Because I ordered inside the restaurant instead of the drive-through. Apparently they have incentives to keep the drive-through queue small and fast.

And I’m not even in car land (America). It was in Spain. I cannot even imagine what ordering in car land from inside the restaurant will take.

EDIT:

Fast food still exists though, it just doesn’t come in the form of the usual American corporations. My local kebab fulfills the order in 5-10 minutes.

How were they absent for the vote? They better have a good reason.

Ask any trump voter why they voted for trump. They will say “because I like his policies more”. Ask them which policy do they think will benefit them, they will have no answer.

Don’t need to enter conspiracy theory land. Elon musk bought votes out in the open. It was as public as it gets. 2024 US elections were not fair and democratic.

My sympathy for them instantly vanished.

They got the day they voted for.

If someone tries to get a death sentence for an innocent person, that is attempted murder. If the punishment for attempted murder in your country is the death penalty, the false accuser should be charged with the death penalty.

Note that this is all assuming that it’s proven the accuser did a false claim. The accused being found not guilty is not enough to say that it was a false accusation. Due to the different standards of proof.
