In the US 3rd parties in local positions can be a good thing because they need to appeal to feweer people directly.

Nationally they just take away from whichever party they are closest to because of first past the post. It sucks, but that is the outcome.

If we approach it from a game theory perspective we all lose. Third party ftw

Exactly. Indie and disengaged voters need to return to the polls and simply vote their conscience.

Let the establishment bend. We shall not.

The establishment will bend you if you do that. You’re playing right into its hands.

And then there will be no more elections.

Were independent voters not already voting their conscience at the polls?

That’s just superrational game theory. There’s no escape!

Sounds like you need to work harder to kill FPTP in your state which brings us one step closer to killing it federally. My state has one more vote to kill FPTP next November
