You imagine a different election result with more people voting, else why say that. So what happens with more people voting? The lesser evil wins? A 3rd party winning in first past the post voting system with electoral college? Maybe you should say something more thoughtful.

You are right of course - your system is so fucked up that it's not even worth trying, just give up already and hand the keys to Pootin. /s!

Not my system but what are people supposed to do then?

I can talk to people; explain why the current system is bad and suggest more representative voting systems, but I have no idea if that has an outcome better than saying "you should vote, or surrender /s".
