    Fight hard to get FPTP or deal with the constant abuse you sustain from the government. This mindset keeps both of these parties in power.

      You do both.

      I am not as focused on ranked choice as others (I very much argue we basically already have the outcome with the primary system) and would rather a focus on getting rid of the electoral college entirely to allow for a popular vote. It doesn’t matter

      What matters is making sure we have a country where we can push toward that in a few years. Since, especially in 2024, one candidate is outright talking about dismantling democracy entirely. And, because of 2016, we have a supreme court that is basically “what do republicans want us to do?” at any given moment.

        I’m in Kansas so I just vote third party federally and against Brownback when he pops up then against every incumbent.

        We’re never going to stop fighting over the lesser of evils. We’ll just keep sliding auth while arguing over minimal harm.

        Dig me up when people decide to do something about it.
