[pp.int.general] LQFB: status quo in Germany // was: liquid feedback papers and/or data?

[carlo von lynX]

Here are some recent LQFB votings.

https://lqfb.piratenpartei.de/lf/initiative/show/6544.html
    Pirates dislike segregating forms of school
    Ja: 148 (94%) · Enthaltung: 5 · Nein: 10 (6%) · Angenommen

https://lqfb.piratenpartei.de/lf/initiative/show/6557.html
    Regulations on how to use Pirate Party flags
     Ja: 87 (64%) · Enthaltung: 8 · Nein: 49 (36%) · Angenommen

https://lqfb.piratenpartei.de/lf/initiative/show/6580.html
    Specific text that summarizes official Pirate values (editorial voting)
     Ja: 39 (76%) · Enthaltung: 9 · Nein: 12 (24%) · Angenommen

https://lqfb.piratenpartei.de/lf/initiative/show/6558.html
    Decision to remove an unofficial pirate magazine from the website
     Ja: 97 (58%) · Enthaltung: 19 · Nein: 70 (42%) · Angenommen

     -> note how they still use simple majority in Germany,
	that indeed is a very bad habit. I am glad in Italy
	we try to at least have 2/3 if not 3/4 majorities
	in order to work harder on convincing everyone.

    Idea for a train reform
    Ja: 65 (76%) · Enthaltung: 1 · Nein: 20 (24%) · Angenommen

https://lqfb.piratenpartei.de/lf/initiative/show/6573.html
    Manifesto pro Rule of Law and against Medieval Shitstorm Practices
    Ja: 46 (77%) · Enthaltung: 3 · Nein: 14 (23%) · Angenommen

https://lqfb.piratenpartei.de/lf/initiative/show/6600.html
    Idea on organizing party politics into "Streams"
    Ja: 40 (55%) · Enthaltung: 3 · Nein: 33 (45%) · Angenommen


So I would conclude, for an instrument that has hardly any
relevance in the de-facto politics of power within the German
pirate party it is doing surprisingly well.

And one more historic mistake in the German deployment of LQFB:
- simple majorities are considered acceptable
