Amazing to watch libs slowly discover why there need to be limits on democracy. Maybe one day they'll even understand why socialist states have a single socialist party in charge.

Parliamentarism is a joke of a democracy. It does not represent the people or their needs.

Precisely right, it represents the ruling class which are the capital owning oligarchs.
