The US isn't a democracy though, it is a dictatorship of the bourgeoisie, where every election we get to select which group of oppressors will wield state power against us until the next one.
Also decline is caused by anticolonial resistance and the logic of capitalism breaking down. I would suggest reading Lenin's "imperialism" and Fanon's "wretched of the earth"
Yes that truly one of the opinions of all time.
It's a better opinion than "US in decline because TOO MUCH democracy".
Lmao. You just witnessed this last election Dems suing third parties to stop them from running, Dems not even pretending to hold a primary, republicans saying its the last election ever.
But yeah, dude, you're bang on the money. Less democracy is what's gonna solve it.
Literally no one said that. Read better. It's not the amount of democracy that was the problem, it was the actual choices made.
What did the voters who actually voted for Trump choose?
