So what's your suggestion?

X as an enlightened despot

 

Buy on AliExpress.com

[Bjerknes]

I would vote for X, even if he would be a despot.

 

[Post Ironic]

I don't vote because i don't believe in democracy as a viable political system, as a matter of fact just as with feudal systems of the past, it is a dead system in our era

I never would have guessed you were a Marxist-Leninist...

You lived a single day in your life under a brutal corrupt dictatorship?

Perhaps he did, perhaps he didn't but his reasoning is still the most strange one i have heard as to why one would not vote. And I have heard a lot.

Lol The irony is he looks like he is in a college dorm attempting a higher education then you see what he is writing and realize no one will ever take him seriously.

What i want is irrelevant

Dictators FTW!

Patriarchy ftw

X as an enlightened despot

hoori i think

Not interested, too much work

I never would have guessed you were a Marxist-Leninist...

Coz it's actually quite the opposite

That's relevant to the idea how?

It maybe is, but unless you know of a better system than democracy, your criticism doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

The merit of my criticism stand on its own regardless of my personal experience or possible alternatives

So there is no "living" system in today's age?

I'm not sure I've sold out democracy, but I've come to believe any system can be better or worse depending most on the people who implement it. Socialism, autocracy, democracy... they seem to matter less to me than the people who might be screwing you over as leaders.

For the US, it is already a federal oligarchy

But with democracy I'd argue it's far less likely, since there are strong mechanisms in place to keep individual leaders from fucking shit up completely.

Not that "democracy" isn't an extremely broad term and all systems have their flaws.

But you are very much a pragmatist from what I've seen on this forum, what is the "best system" for the US today, relatively speaking?

At the very least, decentralization via a return to more state autonomy, making Washington less of a focus and the US political sphere as a whole harder to control. For national security and foreign affairs do it rotational a la UN security Council with state reps, president is more of a figurehead with limited duties and influence.
