Democracy may be the worst form of government, except all the others that have been tried, but FPTP is the worst form of democracy. We need proportional representation.
Our two-party system creates zero-sum politics, driving gerrymandering and voter disillusionment. Most democracies use proportional representation instead, which encourages coalition-building and better reflects voter priorities.
Proportional representation was the most common solution proposed by readers.

Proportional Representation Could Reduce the Risk of Political Violence in the U.S.

Changing the voting system to proportional representation will work wonders for non partisan attitude. The first past the post voting system creates polarization, as time passes, it becomes pernicious polarization. The US is now in the pernicious stage, which can lead to civil war.
Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.
