Something that I realized about the fediverse is that you seem to be able to criticize the USA as a whole, but if you criticize the Democrats you get downvoted. Democrats suck they are not sacred cows (lemmy.ml)

A lot of western countries have preferential voting, and, while it helps a little, it's very much not a silver bullet. Just look at Australia or Germany.

Yeah your right although in Australia at least, the number of non major party seats are steadily increasing, but again that might change since the current two major parties are pushing through as many laws as possible that make it harder for minorities to have a chance in an election.
