The Power of Fusion Voting - by Dan Cantor - The Bulwark
thebulwark.com/p/the-power-of-

If the two-party system is failing, and if a substantial majority of Americans assert in poll after poll that they wish there were more than just two parties, then why don’t third parties convincingly take the field? Why isn’t there a Liz Cheney party? Why do voters shun third parties?

Well, it’s because they understand that in nearly every state, third parties are a fool’s errand, as there is simply no way out of the “wasted vote” or “spoiler” dilemmas that makes today’s third parties pointle…

Text of the above video:
"Shutdowns are often the result of someone feeling so frustrated that they could melt down, but knowing that to do so would be even worse, but that they can avoid dealing with other people’s reactions to that if they manage to stay in control enough to do nothing but bottle it up.
Whichever way they go, meltdowns and shutdowns take a huge mental and physical toll, and require substantial recovery time. Some autistic people report feeling their after-effects for days afterwards, and in some cases losing abilities they previously had for even longer.
Autistic burnout is something like a long-term counterpart to a shutdown: the cumulative effects of pushing beyond your capacities for too long, usually because you don’t feel like you have much of a choice. Society demands that we carry on, however hard it is – often while insisting that it’s easy, and we’re surely just not really trying. At some point, we just… can’t, any more. We find ourselves perpetually exhausted, our cognitive abilities chronically impaired – often with heightened sensitivities and a reduced a ability to socialise."

You know that feeling of dread when you've made a bad decision that you'll have to follow up on soon and that's gonna be really fucking horrible?

There is this baker. Theoretically. He bakes these wonderful cakes. He has committed a few murders. He uses the profits from the baking to harass the victims' families and pay for his fancy lawyers.
Can you enjoy his cakes without feeling guilty? Do you tell your friends to buy those cakes? Can you separate the baking from the baker?

Bush fire in Ōtautahi, on the tops across the valley from us. Ugh. Some folks'll be having a stressful day despite it being cloudless & hot. Perhaps because of that. Lots of appliances & now 3 choppers heading up. Police blocking access up Worsley's Rd. and also at the top of Westmoreland...

View across valley in SW Ōtautahi/Christchurch, showing a large pall of light & dark grey smoke rising from the tops. Helicopters with monsoon buckets are flying about.

Sie merken es einfach nicht:
"Menschen, die die AfD unterstützen, würden am stärksten unter der AfD-Politik leiden, und zwar in Bezug auf fast jeden Politikbereich: Wirtschaft und Steuern ebenso wie Klimaschutz, soziale Absicherung, Demokratie und Globalisierung. Dieses Paradox scheint mit einer falschen Selbsteinschätzung vieler AfD-Wähler*innen und mit einer Fehleinschätzung der gesellschaftlichen Realität zusammenzuhängen."
