These kinds of reforms would be so much easier to implement under a monarchy or some kind of dictatorial state.

Lets make democracy better.

Have you tried dictators?

[-] leisesprecher@feddit.org 4 points 6 months ago

You just need a very very very narrow definition of your "demos".

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

Well golly it just takes so darn long to make systemic changes, y’know? No wonder all the Swifties, er, Lefties or whoever are so gol dang mad. It’s hard work.

I hope this is sarcastic. Because yes, one-party/dictator states CAN implement changes incredibly fast. It's why China is able to get so much infrastructure and nuclear/renewable energy installed so fast... it's just, yknow, the rest of the problems are uhhhhhhhhhhhh

Of course. I deliberately didn’t put a /s because it’s ludicrous but it was a fun litmus test

I figured so.
Unfortunately there is a statisticslly significant population of people on Lemmy who would say a statement like that unironically, so everyone's kind of on edge for such trolls...

Please go to the hospital, I think you may have suffered brain damage.

[-] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Trivially easy in fact, until they became impossible to implement when the dictator didn't step down.

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Well that wouldn’t be very helpful!
