Anarchy is worse than statism
Democracy is bad only for communists. The purpose of democracy is to enable the people to hold the state accountable... which means that democracy is bad for communists who seek to expand the purview of the state. Democracy is an oppressive threat to communists who seek to prevent the people from imposing themselves on the state. The state wants to be free from democracy which is why many people on the left will defend fptp. Fptp is favourable to only those people who want to protect the state from the people. Libertarians are content to let the people impose their beliefs on the state and so they are willing to tolerate (and prefer) proportional representation. Fptp is bad for Libertarians because it is not sufficiently oppressive (for the state). Pr is oppressive but it is oppressive to the state which means that it is good. That which is bad for the state is good for the people... apart from perhaps outright anarchy. If there is not anarchy then the state is bad. Only anarchy is worse than statism.
