    I would argue that. FPTP, you either vote tactically or the vote doesn’t count towards the final results. That’s not real democracy to me.

      your not voting tactically because your vote counts equally as much either way. There’s nothing “tactical” about voting for people who push policies one doesn’t support.

        Yes, there is, the other option will advance the nation faster into full theocratic fascism. If you cannot tell one of the two viable options is less awful you need to get a clue.

          No there isn’t. An advocacy for a lesser evil still implies evil. You need to get an education.

            You’re deliberately ignoring the reality of FPTP voting and saying other people are uneducated. Again, please get a clue.

              Your deliberately ignoring the amount of impact your single vote has. Again, please get an education.

                Of the two of us, I am the only one making a decision that would cause my vote to make an impact. You are extremely ignorant of the world and of very basic game theory. A lemmy.ml instance account, of course.
