in my opinion, within the context of bourgeois democracy, a parliamentary proportional representation system is the best. in that it can force the bigger parties into coalitions with smaller ones. it'll actually cause your PSL/Green vote to actually count. But obviously neither of the major parties wants it.
The American 'democracy' is one of the least democratic ones.
Ideally with some sort of mechanism to ensure the party makeup in parliament matches the overall percentages of the vote, otherwise you end up with the UK where half the time the Tories get like 70% of the seats with like 30% of the vote
Yep, Proportional Representation. South Africa is a good example.
We need fluid e-democracy

It really is, it's so gross.
