Just because they're polite doesn't mean they're not wrong, and if they can't handle being told so then your talking with them isn't going to get anything done anyway

It's not that weird, the US has been shit for a long time and China has never been as bad as the US claimed. What feels weird to me is seeing other people acknowledging it.

Literally all communication depends on how you define the terms you use, that's the whole point of having fixed definitions for words, and the US absolutely does not fit any reasonable definition of a democracy

The US has never been a democracy, we've never been a particularly equitable representative republic either and our government was designed this way on purpose

Because none of those other people want to. The only reason they even allow Bernie to do as much as he does is to placate progressive liberals, if they didn't folks might start figuring out that reform doesn't work.

If Bernie fucking Sanders is too far left for you then you're definitely part of the problem
