  • Nobody has to decipher anything. Everyone is taught from childhood about the most important signs, everyone grasps basic rules and exceptions, and when you learn how to drive, you learn and memorize more obscure sings, and then you just know them, no deciphering needed. It’s the same both in America and in the rest of the world.
    You seem to think that American signs are intuitive and not require learning, but that’s not true, it’s just you’re familiar with them, you know the rules and so it’s easy for you.

    Us system makes better use of shapes, colors, and slashes to be more explicit

    US system uses a lot of text, which is unquestionably bad. Also, it uses more slashed singes, which has upsides, it is indeed more intuitive, but also downsides, it’s more cluttered.
    But it doesn’t really matter because you need to learn the system in any way, there isn’t one that is just intuitively known, and you have to learn both of them. And in this case I would prefer one that is more widely adopted.





  • There is a very lovely pattern I see. Every time there is a conversation on the internet, everyone totally always voted and participated and canvassed and run and also fed the homeless at the same time, and every time there are any elections upcomming, there is no end to the constant anti-democracy messages about how voting is pointless and nobody should do that because both sides.

    In the end, around 20% of registered voters are voting in democratic primaries, and I repeat my thesis, every time the nominee was the person who got the most votes, every time. So the answer to your question - they already care what you think, and if more people were agreeing with you, then maybe they would do what you want. So far they’re doing what majority of voters wants, and that’s not on the shadowy democratic demons, it’s on majority.
