And I thought the US was the only one with FPTP. TIL. From a .usian: I'm sorry, folks in the UK. I know what it's like.

Was it intentional that this video should be viewable by everyone right now? Your note about "early access" doesn't seem to hold up, since I was able to watch this before I logged in to Patreon. It's also publicly available on your youtube channel. So I'm not really sure what "early access" is supposed to mean, here. Don't get me wrong, though. I'm not *complaining*. I'm just confused.

Yup, just tried the link incognito... Definitely allowed me to view... Weird.

It's actually far worse here in the UK, because over here there are 6 parties that now consistently get significant numbers of votes. In the US FPTP somewhat still works, because for the most part there are still only 2 parties that get the vast, vast majority of votes. The most significant problems with the US election system is gerrymandering (for Congress) and the Electoral College (for President).

Three times as much choice, major political parties that are actually differentiable. I'm not seeing how it's worse; did I miss something?

Brenden Bourne

Choice means nothing when the system is FPTP and gives the seat to whichever candidate gets the plurality, which is almost never also the majority when you've got more than two or three candidates.
