    Actually, no, I won’t tell you more about how splitting the vote in a 50% to win system is moronic, as I lack the patience and inclination of an educator.

    I am sorry you were given the education that you have, nobody deserves such a poor grasp on basic civics and mathematics.

      Yeah because basic civics and math dictates that a first past the post binary system is inevitable, systemic change is impossible and everyone arguing for something better is just a simpleton arguing from ignorance rather than suggesting solutions to problems 🙄

      How does that establishment boot taste?

        The voting system needs to change, absolutely. But voting third party at the current moment does split the vote as they describe. Yes, it should be changed. You’re right. But that doesn’t mean that voting third party is suddenly effective until the more than 50% of the voting population does it.
