Tories are solipsists

"Solipsism (i/ˈsɒlɨpsɪzəm/) is the philosophical idea that only one's own mind is sure to exist. As an epistemological position, solipsism holds that knowledge of anything outside one's own mind is unsure. The external world and other minds cannot be known, and might not exist outside the mind. As a metaphysical position, solipsism goes further to the conclusion that the world and other minds do not exist. As such it is the only epistemological position that, by its own postulate, is both irrefutable and yet indefensible in the same manner."

We might think that because government is a false concept in itself that it doesn't matter what type of government we live in... but clearly it is better to be owned by a loving master than a tyrant. Some farm animals live happier lives than others so we can have a view on which type of government we would prefer without being pro-state. Whilst it might be consistent for a true anarchist to have no view on the merits of first-past-the-post versus proportional representation it would be inconsistent for a political party to have no view. This would be the same as a politician being indifferent between a liberal democracy and communism. For a political party (such as the Conservative party) to be indifferent between fptp and pr or even between liberal democracy and communism is for them to make the mistake of solipsism. It is to deny that it itself is a political party because if it is then anarchy is a false notion by their own measure and it is natural to have a view on the merits of different styles of government. If the Conservative party exists then there must be a difference for it between fptp and pr since the government is real and whom gets elected matters and is of consequence. (If there is a difference between fptp and pr then pr is better since more choice leads to more people getting what they want and less of what they don't want.) So then we are left with either pr being objectively preferable or solipsism (for politicians) being true. If solipsism for politicians is true (which it can't be for them because they are a politician) there is no point in them taking a view on which voting system is preferable since there are no political parties and the government doesn't exist. Anti-pr politicians (who prefer fptp) must either deny that they and the universe is real or for some other reason prefer fptp. A 'realist' politician must prefer pr. Tories must think the universe (and themselves) doesn't exist if they are able to think fptp is preferable to pr. A politician who thinks that politics (and the type of voting system in use) doesn't matter must be in self-denial.
