      We’re not the antithesis of a democracy, we’re just a really shitty alpha version of a democracy.

        The system the USA has is very far from a democracy, and they’re not even attempting to reach alpha, beta or any development of it. Oh actually maybe in some local elections they’re on the alpha level, but we don’t really hear much on how they work in the rest of the world.
