Ranked Choice Voting is both too ineffective to make any change, and too difficult to get in the first place. It's the perfect endless carrot on a string, the eternal "just one more lane and traffic will be gone."

Even if that's so, you'd still need to vote for the people on the right, because voting third party in first past the post is objectively just terrible for everyone with similar goals.

The people on the right work with the Republicans. They aren't resistance. Revolution is a necessity.

Even so, voting third party or not voting is worse than voting for the people on the right.
