    Elections are a compromise. Democracy by nature is compromise. FPTP sucks, but it’s the system we had, so you either have to work with it, or burn shit, and not nearly enough nonvoters or 3rd party voters are out here burning enough shit to convince me that they are actually against the system. So in reality they were just naive idealists who couldn’t stomach voting for the best viable candidate, and saddled the rest of us with that orange shit-stain instead.
