That "best system" is what produces that mental illness.

I'm conflicted on this comment. I vehemently disagree that this is the best possible system we could have. But I also strongly agree with the rest lol.

The shit in Britain is definitely not "the best system we have", and I say this having lived a decade there (were I was even involved in Politics for a bit) and also decades elsewhere in Europe hence having observed it first hand.

Britain is "interesting" in how power is controlled there, being at best very much at the low end of democratic, if at all democratic, with things like a head of state with some real power who inherits the post, a second chamber whose members are nominated or inherit their seats, no written Constitution and a First Past The Post voting system, plus the 5 decades of Neoliberalism having de facto made the State as a power secondary (maybe even subservient) to Money.

A performative vote which through Mathematical rigging for most people doesn't really control how a country is managed and forces them into choosing "small evil" to stop "big evil", with on top of it the very way the power structures are shaped robbing them of even more power to set the direction of the country, isn't Democracy.

Totally disagree with that first paragraph. Don't disagree with the rest.
