Understanding our evil rating system and why actions matter more than words
We believe that actions speak louder than words. While it's important to speak up about important issues, what truly matters is how politicians vote when the rubber meets the road. Our scoring system reflects this belief.
Why 2 points? Voting is the ultimate action that directly impacts legislation and people's lives.
Why 1 point? Speaking up is important but easier than taking action. Words matter, but actions matter more.
Anyone can say they support a cause, but voting records show what they actually believe when it counts.
Our system holds politicians accountable for both their rhetoric and their actual voting behavior.
By showing the breakdown of points, voters can see exactly how each rating was calculated.
A member who speaks up about Gaza genocide (+1) and votes against military aid to Israel (+2) would have a total of +3 points, earning a "GOOD" rating.
A member who stays silent on Gaza genocide (-1) and votes for military aid to Israel (-2) would have a total of -3 points, earning an "EVIL" rating.
A member who speaks up about Gaza genocide (+1) but votes for military aid to Israel (-2) would have a total of -1 point, earning a "NEUTRAL" rating.
