Theory: teachers, especially middle school teachers, are hyper-electable candidates because online political discourse devolves to the 12-year-old level.
12 is when political interactions start making sense and massive participant discussions tend to devolve to the least mature level available.

Two senators from Nevada, two senators from New Hampshire, a senator from Illinois, one from Virginia, and one from Pennsylvania.
This screams defense contractors lobbying senators because too many of their worker bees got stuck at an airport for an extra day.

GOP candidates for governor in Michigan keep interesting company.
Jordan Epperson was the stooge's stooge in Ottawa County while the Ottawa Impact extremists controlled the county government. He's a committed groyper and white supremacist. His posts have not been condemned.
This is who MIGOP is.

Single member congressional districts are at the core of why gerrymandering is even possible.
They punish Republican voters in cities, Democratic voters in rural areas, and independent voters across the state.
Look into proportional representation if you haven't already.

Do you think people in power believe we are content with how everything is going right now?
They aren't acting like we're all upset about it, which seems like they might be ignoring 90% of Americans

I love this explanation of ranked choice voting.
The fact that they're using Duplo blocks adds a bonus bit of hilarity because Duplos are Legos for babies – that's how simple and safe RCV is!

I hear you about the general sentiment, but it breaks down under close examination. Badly.
It's a talking point that is impossible to reconcile with the fact that Australians have been using it for 100 years and we're using Legos to explain it successfully to 8 year olds.
