The government is evil if it prefers fptp
The purpose of democracy is to enable the people to have a veto (a right of refusal) on the actions of the state. If there is no democracy this means the state is able to endlessly expand to the extent that the state is all-encompassing. And we know this leads to starvation and death. Democracy enables the people to restrain the government. But if we do not have proportional representation the voter is not able to sufficiently restrain the government. Without pr the government finds it easier to do what it likes because the voter is reduced to choosing the least bad of (just) two parties. With fptp the voter does not have a real choice and we can deduce that the government doesn't want the voter to have a choice. If the government wanted more democracy it would enable the introduction of pr but that is not what the government wants. If the government wanted to be nice to people it would change the voting system to pr but that is not what they want. The government is not nice to people (it is evil) if it does not change the voting system (from fptp) to pr.
