    Where you fucked up:

    passenger 2 - “Hey guys, I have a liferaft over here that doesn’t have a hole in it.”

    You can’t reach the other one with no holes.

    One of 2 things is happening with this comment.

    1. You actually don’t know how FPTP voting works.

    2. You’re pretending to not know how FPTP voting works.

      Captain represents capitalists falsely promising to fix our problems

      Broken liferaft is the false promise (i.e. voting is going to fix our problems despite genocide, imperialism, deporting illegal immigrants, hurting homeless people, fracking, etc)

      Fixed liferaft is what actually will save us (i.e. food, housing, healthcare, etc)

      While everyone is hyperfocused on who to vote for, the capitalists take the rest of the food/housing/healthcare and everyone else dies.
