Do you know how a first past the post electoral system works? Or are you young and naive, thinking that politics isn't about compromise?

Seems like compromise is "the political party does whatever they want and you guarantee your undying loyalty to them with your vote". You speak of youth and naivety, but only an idiot would accept such a "deal". If our votes have power then we should wield it.

Politics is absolutely about compromise, but Democrats never really compromise with progressives. The most we get is putting weed in the hands of the pharmaceutical companies, Yippee.
