    I don’t know what gave you the impression that I am an American, but I am not. And honestly, I wouldn’t call the US a model democracy, it definitely has markings of an oligarchy. (looking at you with confusion)

        Ok, I agree that politicians are often corrupt and don’t necessarily act in the interest of the people, but what does this have to do with centrism?

        Anyway, if you wanna get rid of politicians, what do you propose?

        Im all for some kind of direct democracy, in the age of the internet this isn’t even unrealistic anymore. Proposals could be made and voted on just like Lemmy posts. Or if we wanna stick with elected officials, we might implement some real time election system, where instead of voting every few years, you could just register your vote in a monthly poll on any device with internet access (of course this would require everyone to have internet access at least once a month)
