That idiot CEO is doing idiot CEO things.

Everyone knows that if he keeps bowing down to Musk’s pressure and enshitificating the platform, people will leave for greener pastures as soon as there’s an enticing alternative like they did with X.

CEOs surround themselves with the most conceited and naive of all echo chambers.
They live in an imaginary world in which their backward opinions work better than what has been proven to work time and time again by every research ever done on any subject. They will one day wake up to a blue sky, claim it’s actually pink with green polka dots, and blame “the woke agenda” or some such nonsense when they are obviously proven wrong.

The closest analogy I’ve ever heard for what modern CEOs have become is “Like a bunch of Naked Emperors jerking each other off while shitting all over everyone below them”. As accurate as disgusting.

My comment wasn’t about how the current laws of Austria are but about how they ought to be in any country.

You win the public vote when you get 51% of all the people who had the right to vote. That includes those who didn’t vote.

If participation is only 50% of the voters, and you get 51% of that participation, you didn’t get 51% of the votes, you got 25.5% of the votes.

And by this, I don’t mean what the current laws consider “winning the public vote” in any particular country. I mean what they need to be for that to be really true.

No.

Getting enough monsters and idiots vote for them is still a bad thing, but that doesn’t mean they won.

“Winning the elections” isn’t being the single force that got the most votes individually.
That’s first-past-the-post bullshit like they have in the US.

Those who win an election in a parliamentary government are those who can form a government.

That makes it sound like the fault is on the user side.
When there’s no interaction it’s usually because the user gave up.
The marker should be something that makes it clear that the responses were not helpful.

Even more infuriating are those messages marked [FIXED] when the freaking post had a negative response or no response at all from the user.
Those forums should be full of endless posts marked [PENDING] or [EXPIRED].
