If you're an internet rando, and don't understand the broken game theory behind FPTP, then you're an idiot. It's obvious!

If you're a candidate, and don't understand the broken game theory behind FPTP, then that's fine, you're not playing dumb or anything. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and go kick that football.

It blows my mind how easy it is for drunk drivers to get back behind the wheel. Once someone has proven how overwhelmingly selfish and foolish they are, it's unfair to everyone else to put us in that danger.

So our solution is simply to weaken civil liberties for everyone with unreasonable searches.

It's because you're taking a stance against cashless, which sounds paranoid and weird to most people.

Take a stand against VISA and PayPal. Then the bad guy isn't "our" government, it's corporations everyone already hates. And it references problems people already experience.

It's much easier to explain how the situation is already bad than it is to argue how it "could become" bad.

What if it bounced through multiple peers between sender and recipient, encrypted on each hop like Tor? Then they'd need to actually break the encryption, or compromise every hop.
