That's overbroad, as it would suggest liberals couldn't achieve similar results under a monarchical model. Glancing over at England, I can see ample evidence to suggest merging the executive and legislative branches into a parliament, defanging the courts, and defending the super-legal powers of the monarchy does nothing to inhibit liberals from running wild.
Separation of Powers (and, to a lesser degree, Federalism) allows independent parties to operate with varying degrees of power in order to maintain enthusiastic participation in elections. All these different offices with varying sizes and scopes and appointment processes will guarantee relevance in the minority party and therefore guarantee an organization invested in that party's continued leadership and organizing activities.
If it didn't exist, the worst the bourgeois would have to fear is the Japanese or Mexican or Turkish model of a single dominant party that's backstopped by the military.
The argument they're mad about is that Biden could have exerted pressure on Manchin and Sinema in creative ways to coerce them into being less obstructive. Apparently this would be "becoming the Republicans"
I recognize the user from my days on a subreddit that they moderate (or used to? Idk, I've only glanced at their reddit profile to verify that it was the same user), so I'm just
It's so fucking funny if you have had any experience of any other political party. Get a whip like a real party, if someone like Sinema or Manchin acted like they did in the ALP even once, they'd be out of the party, demonised by the press, harassed by the unions, and people would spit on them in the street.
Wait a sec, even China has "separation of powers."
What is this person on about?
Why do they think that MLs don't do "separation of powers."
