I think you are right I just subconsciously ignore those. What I usually do with maps is click on the little indicators in the maps, this seems to show the one I clicked on without any "sponsored". So far that (and directly searching for a place by name) has not introduced a "sponsored" result. Hopefully Apple is doing the same.

Holy crap you are showing the desperation of somebody who is losing their argument.

Yes the DSA talks about ranked choice voting and increasing the size of the house and the Supreme Court and reducing the senate's power and so on. But these are all so moderates and proportional representation have a chance. It is not "marxist" in any way whatsoever, in fact it is the opposite.

I do fear the DSA, if the win, and feel they will still be preferred over extreme-right candidates, will suddenly have amnesia and forget all these promises (since they still help moderates, who would win over the extreme left just like they would win over the extreme right). But you are a fool to say these ideas are "marxist".

Why isn't there a second independent AI that examines the main AI's output, and decides if it should be censored or not. If it thinks so, the answer is not delivered.

Since the second one is only looking at the first AI's output it seems like it would be difficult or impossible to fool it, especially if it's window is very short (like only the current message).

I assume there is some reason this does not work. Any explanations?

The reason there are extreme left candidates is that the Democrats picked the ONE candidate they will run in the main election. At best they will pick an average Democrat, but because they are NOT using RCV they will probably pick an extremist who appeals to the greatest fraction (far less than 1/2) of them. In RCV there would be a bunch of Democrats and Republicans and others running in a SINGLE election. Yea you can vote for your favorite extremist as #1, but you will also rank people in the middle higher than your opposing side, and since this happens in both directions, the center will win.

It is obvious that opponents of RCV are resorting to outright LIES now. Pretty low.
