Freedom is impossible under first past the post
Fptp means we have just two parties to choose from and we must vote tactically to prevent the more malign party from getting elected. With pr the choice is broader to the extent that we are not really 'represented' in that our views align well with the candidate we choose. Pr is very much like direct democracy in outcome... and direct democracy is similar to anarchy in that even in an anarchist society we might envisage referendums to work out how best to live and whether any laws are required. Referendums in an anarchist society would serve to remind socialists that laws are bad and freedom is good. Fptp is very far from either anarchy or direct democracy. We are certain to be governed by one or other of the main parties... freedom is never possible.
