The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

The Problems With First Past the Post Voting Explained
The Alternative Vote Explained
Gerrymandering Explained
Multiple Party Gerrymandering
Mixed-Member Proportional Representation Explained
