Lib as hell source. From the rag’s about me:
Relationship to the National Endowment for Democracy and International Forum for Democratic Studies
The Journal of Democracy is part of the International Forum for Democratic Studies, housed within the National Endowment for Democracy.
I’m sure there’s still something that can be gleaned from this.
No one likes a totalitarian bully and ya’ll are hopelessly ill-informed.
Tell me you know nothing about socialism without saying you know nothing about socialism.
Relate an election in Taiwain to “owning the means of production,” for me, then.
If you’re not aware of how democratic centralism works, may I suggest reading Chapter Three of Anna Louise Strong’s “This Soviet Life.” My issue with your comment was not about the election in Taiwan, but your use of the word totalitarian.
If you think getting a mere 40% of the vote (of those who participated) and then being allowed to dictate to 100% of the population is unquestionably the best only form of democracy, then I strongly recommend you read that chapter. It’s quite short and easy to read.
As to how this is related to owning the means of production, maybe this will help you understand how who owns the means of production plays a major role in how a country and elections are run. It’s a matter of who has the power to give authority, not who has authority to use that power. Representatives who were voted in by <40% of the population and whose actions are not beholden to even those 40% sounds a lot more totalitarian to me.
That’s some impressive projection for someone who was here not too long ago linking to Media Bias Fact Check like it was remotely reputable.
Taiwan is an unsinkable aircraft carrier for the world’s totalitarian bully parked very close to the PRC. The article in the post is from a mouthpiece of the world’s totalitarian bully.
I don’t understand at all what you’re talking about.
We know
The US. The US is the totalitarian bully of the entire world.
