The Tories are prejudiced against democracy

Something is good if it is bad for the Conservative party. Any party which seeks to gain or maintain power using a non-proportional voting system is not acting in the interests of the people by definition. And so the Tories (if they retain their position on fptp) are acting against the interests of the people... which is bad. The Tories are (objectively) bad if they maintain their anti-pr position. Something which is bad for a party which objects to proportional representation (for no reason) can only be good... not bad. Something cannot be bad if it is bad for a party which rejects democracy and a fair voting system (for no reason). Something cannot be bad if it rejected by a party which has no reason to do so. (It can only be good.) If the Tories could come up with a plausible reason (justification) for their rejection of pr then pr might be bad but if there is no argument against it then it is objectively good. (And to reject it is bad.) Things for which there is no objection are good... and if they are rejected by a party that cannot find a good reason to do so then this is further evidence that they are good. If something is rejected by bad people (in government) then this is further evidence of its virtue. If the Tories hate pr (for no reason) then it is good. It is bad to dislike something for no reason and so pr (which is disliked (for no reason) by bad people) is good... since that which is bad for bad people is good. That which is bad for bad people is good and the Tories are bad for blindly rejecting (being prejudiced against) pr... so pr is good. Pr is good because the Tories hate it. If the Tories (who are prejudiced against pr... and so bad) hate something then it is good. The Tories hate pr so it is (objectively) good. The Tories hate good things.
