@return2ozma@lemmy.world That's a pretty short sighted view considering just ~150 years ago the Democrats were the party against abolishing slavery. Times change, but American politics really don't.
Limiting the choice to the lesser of two evils only benefits one of the classes in the real fight. As Alaska (since 2022) and NYC (this week) have shown, RCV allows voters to select who they really want to lead regardless of whether polls say they are "wasting" their vote.
You're not wrong, but most of us don't have the benefit of ranked choice in our jurisdictions. Until we can get that, I'll continue to vote against the greater evil.
I dream of being able to one day vote for something instead of being forced to vote against something.

That country want to be alone, so leave them alone!

That is a fucking terrible idea. If they later find it, they'll lock you up and maybe later throw you out. The financial risk makes no sense.
I bet the nazi's will have fake "real" ones ready to go either way. When they want to take their current purge to the next level, you're fucking done.
don't go to shithole america
Actual problem solved.

And how long before that applies to citizens too? If Free Speech and Free Expression on the whole aren't dead yet, they've got a foot in the grave
Bout two months ago at the latest

Then do it for real. Social media is kinda shit anyway.

It’s because the morons running the country don’t think that constitutional freedoms apply to non-citizens. No freedom of speech if your speech hurts their feelings. Fuckin aye
They already didn't think constitutional rights applied to anyone within 100 miles of the boarder. Hell, the SC(in 75) had to say, yes, children are citizens and also had rights.

well, have burner social media accounts as well
"What do you mean this 5 year old account has no posts?"
"Work made me get one, but the UI gives me headaches. I think it gives everyone headaches really."

Hello ICE agents, let me walk you through my DeviantArt account. And here's my second DeviantArt account dedicated to the weird shit.

Well it’s been like 5 months and we’re already here, so maybe another 6 months to a year?

What happens if you don't have any social media? I haven't posted under my name on anything in a decade...

You know, when I got my current job, the people in my department said"we tried to find your Facebook but couldn't" and I said 'yeah that's because I don't have one."
13 years later, still don't.
Though honestly even our work teams chat would probably be too spicy for these motherfuckers. They just want a pretext to keep out anybody. Like some law impossible to follow, that they can selectively enforce.

Honestly speaking I see a future where people like us are left out of an integral part of the economy.

Shouldn't the burner be the whiter one?

There are plenty of schools in Europe. There is no reason for essentially the equivalent of 1930s Jewish people to study in essentially Hitler's Germany in the 30s right when the smarter people were getting out.
United States schools have many advantages over European ones. For example we don't need a lengthy unit on WW2 era Germany, you get it for free by walking outside.

They say they will find those "with AI". And they will, for true or for false, because they only want another weapon to use against the "undesirables".
How many false positives will it have when trying to find accounts for John Smith

Well yeah but you have to get RCV first. But for the rest of us in FPTP land, we make do until enough of a movement for RCV is built — and you can't build a movement for RCV while basic rights are being stripped away and you're spending all your cycles on the back foot defending those and putting out fires. Eh, who am I kidding... The damage is irreparable, current Democrats (unless the party gets taken over by Mamdani clones) will just do their ratchet shit again and cement this as the new normal because they're fucking useless.
In FPTP, not voting the lesser evil gives you the greater evil. It's dead simple, but I'll be the first to admit it's a damn hard pill to swallow for us idealists (I should know, I was a Jimmy Dore fan in 2019-2020, took me ages to see through faux-left grift because it preys on idealism and perfectionism).

You will have to disclose your lemmy account.

Why the hell would anyone apply for a visa to come here?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say if a random immigration official knows about your anonymous lemmy account you were already mega-fucked on the immigration front. They've been watching you and probably have a 3 inch thick file on you before you walked in the door.

Some even free too
free for Americans too?
