Circle? It clearly says draw a line around whatever you decided wrongly to indicate. Lines don’t curve and aren’t boxes, so good luck.

The problem is looking at it too functionally. You cannot fix it by “fixing” voting as if voting magically creates a functional government. It’s a method to derive consensus. You cannot look at a system that is failing to produce consensus and then fix it by directly removing anything that increases consensus. That’s insane.
You need to critically look at the entire system and identify what the problem is. In this case it’s largely the abstraction layers. People now interact with their government through filters even greater than the old Hearst days. Information flows from media filters to the population and from the population to government through social media filters. And both of those filters have their own agendas. Of course nobody believes the resulting government is responsive or legitimate. It’s not.
There are many potential solutions for civic engagement. But that largely means breaking down the very walls that powerful interests have created. There’s no easy solution to it. Certainly not “let’s make these stupid people unable to vote.” A solution is much more radical and takes understanding both what you want to achieve and how the current system is preventing it.
Sure. Disenfranchise people. That’s a suitable hack to a checks notes stable, legitimate, and responsive government.

He’s a dude that got upset some publication said killing fascists was fun. Gets angry at any female characters that don’t exist purely to fulfill his fantasies. He’s pro gruel.

✺roguetrick✺@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Ubisoft's annual report dictates that the consumers are the problemEnglish0·2 days agoSo the argument of this video is anti-woke crusaders don’t exist? That they’re not organized since gamergate? That they’re responding to as he put it legitimate “shallow politics, performative casting, and and tone deaf writing” (this is the point I stopped watching the video) instead of knee jerk misogyny and racism? Because that’s what the excerpt he highlighted is obviously discussing as a risk. So either he thinks that those groups don’t exist or that all consumers are legitimately part of those groups. Or he’s just misrepresenting some bullshit he read from their annual report for rage bait.
Absolute horseshit. They’re not doing mass ICE raids in Louisville because they wouldn’t hit their fascist ass quota like they do by pouring those resources into LA. It’s been planitively obvious for anybody paying attention that they will deport ANYBODY they can get their hands on.
But go ahead, preemptively do the federal governments work for them with your budget and see where that gets you.
