You have to work your way up from the bottom with he voting system. You probably know a bit about how they work already, but Approval is my favorite.

Off the top of my head:
-Sold a bunch of merch that was comically oversized and left everyone stuck with unusable product.
-Tried to arrange a deal under the table on an auction gun he got a look at before it went up.
-Doesn’t help his teammates reset stages when at a shooting competition.
-Failed to stand up for Karl when ARFCOM was making up lies about him.
-Failed to give IRTV credit for organizing a 2GAC match, when that’s basically the only request they make for media.
-Took on Lucas Botkin as a sponsor.
-Copy-pasted brutality rules for his own spin-off match after falling out with Karl, and doing such a poor job he left in references to the venue or IRTV (I can’t remember which).
-When asked why he was selling merch with a picture of himself that he hated, shrugged and said “money.”
-Treats his wife more like “the help.”
-Generally just thinks he’s better than you and you don’t deserve his respect.
-Abuses copyright takedown requests.
-Removes comments critical of him on his YouTube channel but claims doing so for other people was not possible (Karl, when ARFCOM happened).
-Has expressed deep distain for his own audience.
There’s more but that’s all I can remember right now.
Edit: I should say that he’s generally pretty good at keeping this stuff out of the public eye, these are mostly only things you hear if you know the right people.
Forgotten Weapons: Used to have videos on very cool old guns with interesting historical backgrounds and whatever. Then he made a series of selfish decisions that demonstrated what kind of person he really was, and I no longer had any interest in even helping him through the algorithm.
I love guns, but… Bro… Don’t do that.
Too bad about him, his passion for old electronics made me interested when I don’t have any particular interest of my own.
Shad is constantly trying to get one over on his co-hosts to the point where it’s difficult to watch. Always has to win. I liked learning about how castles worked a hundred times more.
I shall never forget as long as I live. Katie Porter or AOC would be better choices.
I think the phone market should also be broken up.
The reason a doupoly is bad in any market is that it’s essentially next to no choice for the consumer, and the businesses can force changes to the market that are anti-consumer with little reprocussion. In any given market the minimum number of legitimate competitors necessary for meaningful competition will be different, but even three is too few in the web browser game, especially when the market shares look like this.
Almost certainly the entire reason Google is funding Mozilla is to try and stave off antitrust lawsuits.
Any kind of money is an arbitrary store of wealth.
Damn that shit is fucked up.
Read their replies in this thread, it’s 100% “I didn’t ask for suggestions and I don’t like your suggestions anyway.”

Keeps replying to people to express their disinterest in the offered free time activities.
Honestly OP is clearly depressed and angsty and is taking it out on us.
Frozen was 3 hours worth of movie jammed into 1 and a half hours. So much stuff happens that either didn’t need to happen or needed a lot more setup and motivation. I can understand why little kids liked it, I still have no idea why all the young women liked it too.
It’s not subtle enough with its critique. Either that or it’s not ridiculous enough. It’s sitting in the middle zone that just doesn’t work well.
When’s the next movie come out? Barbie is so last year.
Intentional change happens through years of dedicated work and organization. Very few people accidentally improve themselves overnight. Even fewer wake up to discover they’ve improved society.
Yeah, FairVote is… Okay. In terms of objective vs political, they tend to be as political as they can get while still being objective. They used to actually say a few things that weren’t exactly true, but opponents kept calling them out on it so they quit as far as I know. Wikipedia would be a better source, though be aware that proponents of any system will try to sneak in promotional language. But, at least on Wikipedia there’s also people trying to keep things objective.
These are what I would consider the most relevant articles if you’re looking to understand the realistic options in America.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Approval_voting
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instant-runoff_voting (called RCV in the US)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-past-the-post_voting
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-round_system
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_electoral_systems
I would say that you don’t actually need to read any of these articles particularly closely. They can get very technical. You can just skim them for the parts you find interesting.
No? Under the usual American implementation of RCV only the highest ranked candidate on a ballot gets the vote from that ballot. If no one has a majority of the remaining votes the person in last place is eliminated and their votes are redistributed according to the individual ballot preferences. So if the American presidency was ~50/50 red v blue as first choices (with a few people picking third party candidates) whichever third party candidate that took last place would get eliminated. In fact, mathematically speaking, if red and blue each got at least 1/3 of the first place cuts votes, one of them must be the eventual winner and the other must take second place.
There are other systems that could cause chaos with your suggested rankings, but they’re generally not considered serious methods exactly because they are chaotic under reasonable circumstances.
Yeah, sucks doesn’t it?
He’s had to fill in with match footage because he lost access to the auction house guns after trying to set up that deal. He has access to a lot fewer old firearms these days.
Karl is still making videos, but Ian is not a part of IRTV anymore.
