I never actually thought I'd read one of your 30 minutes papers but for some reason this one drew me in and hooked me.
In Nigeria, I've started to wonder if we're living in one of the dictatorships that are feigning democracy.
For the last 30 years (from what I have seen) it's only two parties that have a fair struggle on who gets to be the leader.
Some how they could be related to the left and right wing of America because from what I usually read and see online the left wing is favored as good and the right wing to be the corrupt.
I didn't get to see Nigeria as a pure dictatorship during the time of the military and I don't want to see it.
Still I do wonder if this current democracy is the best way to go..
I don't write too many of these super long posts these days. I've been focused on the Sapien Loop content. I felt I needed to write this post because of the current state of the world and the many developments since I wrote my regular posts.
The two-party/two-ideology system appears prevalent in almost all 'democracies'. Ultimately, the people have no real choice. The 'left' and 'right' pretend to be different, and they do things differently, but the long-run goals are almost always the same: transfer of wealth and power to the few. The world is in a very sad state.
Thank you for reading the whole post.
Indeed, in my country they are almost never heard of only until it's time for the elections, both government and presidential.
Every winner seems to always be linked to the two biggest political groups.
It seems like other political parties are just proxies created because of the elections..
