Sort of like the usa?
nope, usa is a two party first the past post system on a federal level and allows state levels to determine their own systems, both of which allows for third parties. you have no actual proof of voter fraud and jim crow era laws have been long dismantled. fuck off with that. yes, gerrymandering exists on a state level but that isnt a federal issue. your problem exists with specific states, regardless, a challenger can still win a gerrymandered state. now go prove china has a democracy on a federal level, you cant
Lol ok, I mean you have the ultra right and the right party. They are different, but the usa has a well defined external politic which doesn't really change. So since I'm outside to me it looks almost like china
outside policy that doesnt change? literally every president has different external policy which is regulated by 100 changing members of the senate. what the fuck are you talking about.
it's almost like when youre a dictator you dont have checks amd balances to stop you and have much less recent predecessors to be compared to
elaborate how
mayooo said us policy doesnt change at all, i said it does. someone else said it doesnt change as much, i said thats because theres no checks and balances. my logic is fine.
LMAO China has more parties than US 🤡 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_political_parties_in_China
literally the first line: 'The People's Republic of China is a one-party state ruled by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).' cope harder commie
literally lists different parties in China, keep coping dronie
'...eight minor political parties subservient to the CCP exist.' you were saying?
oh? two major parties? wow so theres a choice? and can we nominate who gets to lead those parties? oh yes we bloody can lmfao.
yeah they can nominate who runs them thats true, it's also true voters can not show up if theyre outrageous whoch rhier choice.
elaborate
to me, usa seems so politically inflamed it might as well be 2 "one partys" fighting each other.
