@worldsendless him rising from the grave is suggestive of him being a vampire. The rest comes from vampire mythos.

@wjmaggos If that were true then why doesnt he have a reflection?

@worldsendless I mean, the man rose from the dead 3 days later and just strolled out of a grave... the mythos was already set in motion long before i arrived to point it out.

Remember folks, Jesus cant enter your home if you dont invite him in. He also doesnt have a reflection if he looks in a mirror.

I am not sure why they are so proud of the quality of their denim pants, but hey, just glad they are happy with their style choices I guess.

Its actually a smart move. IT is hard to get any job fresh out of college without experience. Teaching is considered experience so after a few years of teaching he will be more marketable and possibly able to get hired.

Sure, Nixon seemed largely worried about addiction, and thought that addiction running rampant was harming the country.. his top concern however was not the general population but the military in Vietnam at the time.

His actions also suggest he saw the addicts as mostly victims, this is seen by the fact that he significantly reduced penalties for possession and use. But his goal was still to eliminate the number of addicted people in the USA. So he started the DEA to try and cut the supply off to the users.

In short his tactic was reduced criminality, but increased enforcement, primarily within the military and internationally, but also to reduce the production and supply within the USA.

Most of his actions resulting from the drug policy during his administration were target at the military, enacting things like drug tests and consequences there.

That wasnt what I claimed, in fact the opposite. I said FPTP **does** cause 2 of the choices to generally get the vast majority of votes. What it doesnt cause is the same 2 choices to be picked every time you have a vote... In other words the only thing FPTP causes is the top two choices for any year will get 95%+ of the vote, but it does not in anyway ensure the same 2 top choices from 4 years ago will be the top 2 choices this year.

Thuis GPTP does **not** cause the same two parties to stay in power, it does cause quick jumps in party favoritism without a gradual transition... In other words A: 48% B: 48% C: 4% may switch the next year to A:48% B: 4% C: 48% in the next year without seeing an incremental shift. But there is nothing about FPTP that would prevent parties from changing.

Thus yes, the idea that FPTP means the same 2 parties will remain in power is completely a conspiracy theory. The idea that it creates skewed voting results is not.

@Hyolobrika @DrALJONES

@AmpBenzScientist did you see the JDs? If so and you think your interested and a fit let me knw and ill DM you the email.

@wholemilk

Int he very early days we had FPTP just as we do now. So the fact that america has had primary parties switch 8 times, and other FPTP elections outside of the usa see switches all the time too, it disproves the fallacy that FPTP prevents third party from winning, we know for a fact it doesnt.

So that means the reason we dont see third parties win in recent history is clearly for a reason OTHER than FPTP voting, namely, the fantasy that it is a 2 party system when it isnt, or the fantasy that FPTP will guarantee a 2 party system when it doesn't. The only thing that keeps a 2 party system alive is the conspiracy theory that FPTP forces a 2 party system.

@wholemilk

I was mistaken in one point... in one such case the majority party was able to come back, but only once.

@Hyolobrika @DrALJONES

@wholemilk

1796 - Switch from non- partisan to having two seperate parties take majority, the democratic-republic and federalist

Switches so far: 2

1828 - Another double switch with two new parties coming into replace the old two majorities, the National Republican, and the Democratic

Switches so far: 4

1836 - The Whig party replaces the National Republic party

Switches so far: 5

1856 - The Republican party replaces the whig party

Switches so far: 6

1912 - The BullMoose party replaces the Republican party as a majority

Switches so far: 7

1920 - The Republican party replaces the Bull Moose party again.

Total switches: 8

@wholemilk

No it isnt, in first pas tthe post you will get a **tendency** towards 2 choices getting the bulk of the votes. But such a system does **not** maintain the same two choices as dominante in each election.

In fact quite the opposite in FPTP systems minor parties or choices tend to go from <5% suppport to a majority choice in a single election cycle.

In the USA for example we have had a primary party be replaced with a third party in a signle election cycle, after which the old primary party never becomes primary again, 8 times in the history of the USA.

So we have plenty of examples that FPTP voting actually does allow for more than 2 parties, it just gives the illusion that it does.
