    All you do by voting for a 3rd party in a FPTP election is take a vote away from the major party you are most closely aligned to. You may as well just not vote

      Both parties rule as conservatives. Can’t say I really align with either.

      You’re right though. I may just as well not vote, given that we always get conservative outcomes.

        As much as people are disenfranchised the two parties are not the same. One is conservative, and the other is trying to create a authoritarian theocracy.

          One is trying to create an authoritarian theocracy, and the other is collaborating in that effort either overtly or by inaction. They are functionally the same.
