Fptp and pr are the same since they are both wrong

There is not much difference between proportional representation and the first past the post systems of voting... it's like arguing about which is the greater (or lesser) injustice. To even discuss the differences (if there are any) is to give legitimacy to the institution. We can only discuss the nuances of something which we think is good. If we do not need to have a democracy then we must be silent on preferences between fptp and pr otherwise we are supporting the state. To even express an opinion (on which voting system is preferable) is to give the impression of being in support of government.
