Repolarize American Politics: How to make the two-party system irrelevant
Saturday, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM. Location: Gyroscope, Lighthaven, Berkeley
With negative polarization at an all-time high and memes like prediction markets and ranked-choice voting gaining steam, American Politics Company believes the time is right to redefine political affiliation in a nonpartisan way. Come learn how America's loss of a shared informational commons and toxic polarization has been 50 years in the making, how Manifold is already improving politics in San Francisco, and how we can all express our political identities proudly, in a healthier way.

I had more than 20 attend my session today at Less Online, more narrowly about San Francisco politics. The slides are at bit.ly/less-online
@EvanDaniel that would be the more natural choice but there's nothing about this market that's actually broken
@jim Yeah, the probabilities adding to 115% (at time of writing) is... well, I'd call it broken, and not working as presumably intended by the author, but that's kinda splitting hairs on what counts as broken. It's definitely wasting liquidity. But yes, people can bet in (mostly) reasonable ways here and it will (presumably) resolve in a self-consistent and accurate fashion.
@EvanDaniel I'm sorry I missed it up. is there a way I can make it dependent? otherwise I'll just deal with it lol
