“It’s not democracy if two coalitions attract a majority of the population to vote for one or the other”?
Like, fuck, there’s so much wrong with two-party systems, but “It’s not democratic” kind of fucking ignores that there’s nothing keeping any given party competitive except the support of a near-majority for the coalition.
Man, Westerners who have never lived understand a dictatorship saying stupid shit like this really grinds my gears. Like, don’t make these sorts of statements until you’ve had to make sure you don’t complain about prices too much with friends in case one of them is an informant for the secret police.
Any election where only 2 people on the ballot matter.

I didn’t say a 2 person ballot wasn’t a democracy. I said it wasn’t even twice as good as a dictatorship.
… I’m lost.
They’re trying to say the American political system sucks in the dumbest possible way.
A binary choice democracy is barely better than a dictatorship.
Often both candidates serve the same master.
