RCV is not nearly the best alternative to FPTP, but ones that are better are much more complex to compute and the average (ahem) citizen would be skeptical of the results.
RCV, to me, is a compromise which meets the "cloneproof" criterion of voting systems, which is the glaring, known-to-all-society-as-awful things about FPTP.
I see RCV as, quite truly, one of the major initiatives we need in this country to make it more democratic. Conspiracy theorists like the one you respond to are enraging. They are not only clearly wrong about something, and have no merit to their assertion, but they are fighting against democracy, not for it.
