Re: democracy is a huge circlejerk
Saying that a dictatorship is better than a democracy makes me sick. Today in my country it's been 43 years since the last dictatorship where they actually kidnapped and murdered people just because they thought different than them. Democracy may not be perfect, just like any other political system, but it's way better than a dictatorship for sure.

Re: democracy is a huge circlejerk
Dictatorships usually rest on an ideological foundation of some idea of popular sovereignty, i.e. democracy.
The true and good form of government is monarchy.

Plus your average monarchy had a succession crisis every century, so imagine all the fun we could have with wars.

How much time and effort have you spent researching the subject?MightySheep wrote:democracy is flawed but its the best we got
capitalism is flawed but its the best we got
simply put- no better alternatives currently exist
I am sure that there are better alternatives, and there should be public discussion about implementing these alternatives.
Or even just slight improvements to the current system.
Instead of the current situation where nothing ever changes.

Re: democracy is a huge circlejerk
You don't vote for a flawed system to make it more flawed because you don't like that it is flawed.
Much logic.
So wow.
