but just because there’s one party doesn’t mean there isn’t debate or democracy within that party. Does anyone here seriously think the electoral discourse would be any worse off in say, the USA, if people had to actually weigh up individual candidates positions and policies, rather than writing “blue = good, red = bad” (or vice versa) on their hand in permanent marker and letting that decide for them for their entire political life?
Multiple parties just devolves into this team sport horse race bullshit
i would take a one party state, over the trash multiparty elections in my country, plus in the US the diferences between democrats and republicans are so minimal it might as well be a one party state with competing factions inside it
