Ahh
Democracy
yes
based
sweden is small enough that it works
I can see the problem in places like USA however
That's why I'm differentiating parties between our two systems
yes haha I'm just trying to understand how the american system works
There's 50 different republican psrtjes
oh shit?
huh. cool.
50 different Democrat parties
just for context, there are 50 states right?
Yes
or am I retarded?
oh ok!
Well then. Seems like a pretty fitting system if you ask me.
So a Democrat in West Virginia could be more related to a republican in Oregon
Ahhhhhh!
i would call them just different branches of the republican party tho
different legal entities which are actually one
But they have no allegiance to other state parties, or an overarching authority
seems pretty fitting
very cool
So yeah, we have parties, but like 100+ lol
<:GWcorbinTopKek:384871333705678868>
There is NO allegiance to any party
very epic
So if lets say you would run as a republican, that wouldnt really say much about the party as a whole, correct?
Right
Very cool.
But the party can't do shit if you're actually a secret commie
Yeah. Which is a problem lmao.
Cant do that overhere. <:GWcorbinTopKek:384871333705678868>
Cant hide your ideology. If someone finds out you're fired.
Which is good imo. I want people to be truthful. And I want the people representing the parties to actualyl represent them well.
(Thing is, if they already have a seat somewhere, and get fired, their seat is not lost. They still sit there. We call them political wildlings.)
Well shouldn't they be representing the people, not the party?
Well the parties are branches of the people, showing what different groups need and requires.
A Social Democrat and a Moderate both represent the people
