    Yeah but in that case they are right. Not voting for the bigger party that you don’t like that much could mean that another big party that you really dislike will win.

    The people are not the problem, the system that doesn’t allow them to voice their opinions through a fully democratic vote is.

    We usually talk about “democracies” as an umbrella term without regards to how they’re electoral and government systems actually work.

      Bc changing the system is a challenge to the people who get power from that system.
