its probably no use to talk with you
I think this thought is a dangerous one. It’s a sort of trap that people fall into. It’s very alluring and easy to say that. Yet I suggest people stay vigilant and brave and avoid it. Keep in mind it’s difficult for people to let go of their opinions, don’t resent them for it and try to understand their point of view, maybe there’s something in it for you to learn.
collations that ignore the first choice are not legitimate
Why so? Why do you assume that one party should arbitrarily be given more rights/power than others? Where does this idea come from?
Imagine an even more extreme example. Assume the winning party had 5% of the votes and most other parties had around 4-5% of the votes. Then assume that the winning party is unable to convince any other parties to enter into a coalition with them. Should all other parties not be allowed to make a coalition to represent 95% of the voters? Should the “winning” party be allowed to block this? Why should such deadlocks be allowed? What is the argument behind this?
This assumes the opposing party represents every other vote cast, as well that peoples votes are entirely exclusive.
Keep in mind that literally every other party announced beforehand that they would NOT enter into a coalition with this particular party under its leadership. That means any people who voted for another party must’ve accepted this.
This comment confuses me. So in your opinion, in a proper good non-failing democracy should getting less than 29% of the votes mean you get to rule over everybody and make decisions without anybody interferring? So then in other words, <29% of the population should get to decide who rules alone over 100% of the population? That sounds like it’d be a very counter-productive system.
And sites are still more than happy to show those in the popup, just to muddy the waters and make it more complicated than it needs to be.
As far as I see it, displaying information regarding strictly necessary cookies that do not require consent is good practice.
The website linked above states that “While it is not required to obtain consent for these cookies, what they do and why they are necessary should be explained to the user.”
I think the complicated part is mostly the deliberately bad UI that is often used for cookie banners. They purposefully use a bad layout and color scheme in an attempt to push the user to just click “Accept all”. As far as I understand if a websites only had strictly necessary cookies then I think they wouldn’t even need a cookie popup in the first place though and could simply list this information on a separate “Privacy Policy” page or such.
Probably worth noting: Only things like non essential third party cookies need consent. Essential cookies for things like the users active session that are not shared don’t need a cookie banner.

It doesn’t seem like trolling to me. Posts do not seem offensive and don’t seem to break any of the rules. It seems to be a strong opinion, perhaps misinformed or naive or confusing. But not flat out trolling.
