    Serious question, what truly successful, stable and properly representative democracies are there?

    Most of the EU. Aussieland and New Zealand. Canada. Taiwan. Mongolia. Mexico and Brazil, if you’ll allow a little wiggle room in ‘stable’. Possibly SK and Japan, depending on your definitions of ‘properly representative’.

      I don’t know, but that list is suspiciously long. Are there really that many? Have I been 4chaned into believing that democracies around the world are failing?

        Kind of. There are a lot of serious threats to democracies around the world, but so far most seem to be holding out fairly firmly, if not necessarily ideally.

        Am in Aus, our system is doing fine. One of our major parties are moronic pieces of shit that constantly lie but that isn’t different to other places. No one is taking away our right to vote, infact the opposite. If I don’t vote in the federal election I’ll get a fine lmao
