Reason for deletion: "Misleading name for a theory"

What does this even mean? I just quoted "Duverger's Law" which is could be proved multiple times in plurality voting systems, especially in 2016 and 2020 in the US.

Also: David MF Duke from the MF KKK endorsed Jill Stein. Now go and ban me if you want.

Wait, so they're saying "Duverger's Law" is really just a theory? That's not quite as dumb as calling evolution "just a theory", but it's up there.

it's no law at all. it couldn't have been proven, and it can't be disproven either. it's a tautology.
