On the one side I really like c and c++ because they’re fun and have great performance; they don’t feel like your fighting the language and let me feel sort of creative in the way I do things(compared with something like Rust or Swift).

On the other hand, when weighing one’s feelings against the common good, I guess it’s not really a contest. Plus I suspect a lot of my annoyance with languages like rust stems from not being as familiar with the paradigm. What do you all think?

but municipal and regional elections have miserable turn-outs too

Don't mind me, just reposting a FPTP video I just saw in another thread on lemmy.
It also heavily discourages voters from participating because they've never felt represented, as the two party system is ultimatively a minority rule. So why should they care for local elections held within the same system?

Edit: a word.
