Actually rational take?? Holy hell

This year’s general election, after all the votes counted, has a

• Sainte-Laguë index of 48.36, and a
• Gallagher index of 23.75.

This makes the (dis)proportionality worse than HUNGARY’s (my home) FPTP component (SLI = 36.96) – a component of the mixed system which allows our ruling party to get 2/3 supermajorities each time, every time, with sometimes less than 50% of the votes, and which ultimately transformed our country to an “electoral autocracy”

You guys need electoral reform desperately. And do it before someone cheats with the current rules deliberately.

(PS: I calculated the electoral indices using the python package voting)

The country, meanwhile, is the uncanniest Mr. incredible, but instead of black and white, it’s orange and white (We love Fidesz)

This is flipping amazing. UX beats big corps hands down, recommendations are greatly innovative. One little thing: can we have a back button? It’s a bit clunky when I have to go to the top of my browser every time I go back from a post. Other than that, it looks great!

A web app is just a fancy name for a dynamic web page. Change my mind.

Here’s the way: look at the little “crack” on the middle of the plug on one side (the vast vast vast majority have one) – that should be facing down. I haven’t used a vertical plug in a while but I think it faces left there.

For the forsaken anguish of God, microUSB, it’s reversed, so crack up.

Even more impressive because of it’s unholy pronunciation, the Hungarian „longest” word: ’megszentségteleníthetetlenségeskedéseitekért’

Well first a new voting system would be required because Orbán, after winning in an unproportional system, decided to make the system even worse. So now, even if he only gets 45-54% of the vote, the same exact 68% supermajority is guaranteed.

Да.

Aber Newton war die der Beste: “14 (1 1/4) Grad: Die größte Hitze eines Bades, die man für etwas Zeit aushalten kann, wenn die Hände eintauchen wird und wird in konstanter Bewegung halten.” Wissenschaftlich.

Isnt it like

“Ok, I’m going to bed at 2300.”

“Ok now let’s do another thing”

I think the left side scale is cm over 1m, so he would be 167cm, and the right scale is just a flustercuck.

Zwischen uns.

wait until you see the immense disproportionality of the Hungarian voting system. MMP sounds nice, but the implementation makes it possible for our beloved leader to lose the popular vote and win 2/3 of the Parliament. 48% to 67% of seats. Lovely, eh? That was 2014. Unfortunately our demagogue brainwasher has now convinced 54% of voters the last time. And he won the exact same 2/3 sup.majority.

Unfortunately not because of an even worse version of the worst voting system in democracies: Fucked Past the Post.

The brainwashing is mental. Just about a month ago some secretary of state came to our town and preached that ‘science without faith is science without morality (and that is bad), so therefore teaching without teaching faith is teaching immorality. West does that, West bad.’ On 15 March, the national holiday, our dictator Vezető prime minister preached the same thing.

As someone raised Catholic, and now just generally Christian who goes to mass whenever I feel like it, if any politician ever uses the religion card, I might just commit some act punishable by the TEK (Hungary). /hj obviously, but ffs man! Freedom of religion is being eroded by the Hungarian government as well. Why does anyone’s faith have to control others’?

So as a technically Catholic: I am not persecuted. I am being privileged way too fucking much.
