Refusing to participate in anything

What are you saying? That First Past The Post voting disenfranchises a huge portion of the electorate by artificially limiting the number of viable political parties?

The "totally supports democracy" democrats are probably all over correcting this issue in the states they control right?

Yup, FPTP is garbage, and the US is a dumpster fire third world country with a Gucci handbag.

And yet, doing nothing can result in things getting even worse, so someone shouldn't pretend to have some sort of moral superiority over doing nothing from stopping napalm being thrown on the fire because "it's already burning anyway."
