    Is this advocating voting third party? Because that isn’t how first past the post works, third parties won’t win.

      The exact opposite.

      Because that isn’t how first past the post works, third parties won’t win.

      That’s why the ambivalent option is the 3rd one, because the only two options they could win are bad but that was the option that so many “anti-genocide” people chose, because moral high ground is more important than trying to engineer practical outcomes.
