Yep, this isn’t a we want everyone to be closer to the office. This is a let’s see how many will quit first before we layoff the rest on our list.

True but I’m talking about protests where it’s legal. I don’t know if this is considered rural though since it’s a farming area. Which is exempt from the open carry ban.

Yup

You do know why firearm protests were peaceful right? There were 20k+ people armed in Virginia. The police got the fuck way back, and did not escalate force. The boots think they’re hot shit until the other side can sling hot shit towards them.

Wow, I don’t know why they keep saying “we’re unarmed”… people start open carrying at these protests. You want them to back off and leave? You want to not get shot with rubber bullets? These SS members are doing that shit because they know there won’t be any force returned to them. If this crowd showed up armed, they would have left a long time ago.

Naa I get it, I think I’m more annoyed at how the big guys (bands/nfl teams/companies/ect.) haven’t moved. Because if they do, they’re going to drag a ton of people with them and it’ll kickoff the migration.

I just want it to be coop.

Yea I really don’t understand this, like move it’s 2 seconds to join bluesky…like damn

The turnip won. It definitely helped

What’s stopping them from doing this now?

Or just say they ran out of paper. Like there are more pros than cons to this system. Nothing is going to be perfect.

I’m suggesting that if the abuse is large enough that it swings entire elections, then it should be looked into as a why it’s happening vs saying we shouldn’t do something about voter fraud because something else might happen.

Yea… I’m kinda seeing that. It’s not a hard concept lol it’s a paper receipt. Toss it away if you’re worried about it.

Sure while this is a concern, why aren’t we instead looking into the abuse vs suggesting we no do something because of another problem?

You could literally just throw it away and then they wouldn’t be able to do anything. If someone is threatening you to vote a certain way and they’re doing this to enough people that it makes a change… we’ve got much bigger problems than vote tracking.

Musk literally bought peoples votes…there are plenty of people who have no morals and absolutely would vote how they’re paid.

What’s stopping this now? Vote buying would happen regardless of a system.

If you’re at that point then what makes you think they’re not using facial surveillance to watch how you vote? And worse is mail in ballots.

Under this system, the votes are tied to a randomized number, not to a person. They wouldn’t know.

The problem is, that it’s either a system with checks or you get a system with no checks and potential fraud.

This would still be anonymous, you vote, it prints out a ticket number just for you not assigned to anyone but the votes that have been cast. You walk out of the voting booth with a ticket that has a number assigned to the votes nothing more.
