65% of U.S. adults say the way the president is elected should be changed so that the winner of the popular vote nationwide wins the presidency.

      Because there's a lot of people that don't live in cities and they need different things from the people that live in cities.

          Literally every thread you have to argue with me. Are you doing that with everyone or just me?

          Aside from that, there's things federal government can legislate against that the state will absolutely have no say in. I'm more left wing in my politics but guns, despite being a fundamental right seems most fought against by the left and fought for by the right.

            I don't even notice usernames most of the time. Maybe I "have to" argue with you because you say a lot of disputable things. Turn down the paranoia a few notches.

              You have an average of a post/comment to Lemmy every 15 minutes over 3 months. You most certainly do not "have to" spend every waking moment of your day on here arguing with people. It's unhealthy.

                When did I say I had to do anything? And if your job doesn't give you lots of free time to kill, that's not my problem.

                Also, do you think I post when I'm asleep?

                  Actually no, I don't think you post while you're asleep, that's an excellent point.

                  When I take away 8 hours a day you would spend sleeping, it's actually less than 10 minutes between posts on average.

                  Thanks for correcting my oversight.

                  I'm also working right now, I just don't spend an unhealthy amount of time using Lemmy.

                    And you got your medical degree from where?

                    I mean since you're talking about health… by the way, speaking of health, I'm semi-disabled because of it, which is another reason I post so much. So I'm already not healthy.

                    Not that you give a shit. You're not actually interested in me beyond telling me how awful I am.
