In the absence of flairs, questions requesting more thought-out answers can be marked by putting [SERIOUS] in the title.

We also have first past the post voting, so using said voice is never a waste.
FPTP is the shitty undemocratic system America and the UK use.
We use Instant Runoff Voting, which is a type of preferential (also called "ranked choice") system. Which, as you say, means you aren't wasting your vote by voting third party.
