leave it to the UK to create a system somehow less functional than the electoral college here in the US. Huzzah to the special relationship.

FPTP is exactly as dumb as the US election system, because it’s the same thing the US has.

Do people in the usa get taught anything about how various different kinds of democracies work in their mandatory schooling?

It's confusing to me, as even in isolated old Australia we learn about different kinds of voting systems and republics vs monarchies etc.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
