    All you get to do is pull a lever every few years to decide which member of the ruling class will repress you.

    And in many cases you don’t even get to do that. Look at the UK and how they purged labour or in the US how Bernie was suppressed and Copmala was smuggled past the primaries.

      France is even more egregious where Macron just refused to appoint a PM after losing the election. The whole process is just a veneer of democracy, and as soon as things don’t go the way the ruling class works, the mask drops and you see the face of fascism beneath.
