    Yes, we have one party here [in Tanzania]. But so does America. Except, with typical extravagance, they have two of them!

      "American democracy is a sham, theres no difference between Democrats and Republicans. It’s as if we had two parties in Cuba and Fidel led one and I led the other."

    democracy is when every acceptable ideology has an exactly equal number of supporters and none of them can accomplish anything meaningful, and tyranny is when most people agree on something and work together to achieve their goals. behold my genius, for i have solved politics.

      Doing things is political. Doing and changing nothing is not political and therefore good.

    Democracy is when you have exactly two parties that hate each other but vote for everything bad and vote against everything good.

    Democracy is when 2 parties enrich themselves via corporate handouts at public expense, and corporations control mass media to derail any attempts to hold them accountable

    I've never understood this American obsession with "democracy" meaning "Two parties having a really close race every election." Even when I was a shitlib, it still made sense to me that our labor party actively worked for the people and our liberal party did not, so it made no sense to me that the race should ever be close.

    Just spectacle and sports team politics. Rots their brains.

    democracy is when there's bourgeois parties and the more bourgeois parties the more democracier it is

    the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

    Is Nikki Haley the fake leftist that was getting the astroturf treatment on /r/latestagecapitalism a few months back?

    E: not who I was thinking and Tulsi wasn't it either. Gonna go some searches.

    E2: maybe Marianne Williamson?

      Highly unlikely. She's Trump's former ambassador to the UN, and former Republican governor of GA. You could possibly be referring to Tulsi Gabbard.

          Y'know, I even googled her to make sure before I typed it out, and for some reason my brain changed it within seconds.

        Def not Tulsi but she turned into a ghoul too. I'll have to try and find the person I'm thinking of then.

        Enjoy this blessed moment when you don't know which weird fascist freak they're talking about because it's not "election season" yet.

    Liberals be like: "We can't write off Texas, it's so diverse and queer."

    My brother in Christ, who do those diverse queer people vote for?

      Liberals write off Texas and Republican states all the time, many think the people in those states deserve to suffer for not supporting Joe Biden
