Ah good old Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov, that great champion of democracy and freedom of expression.

Just because it's not one of two flavors of democracy in favor in the "west" doesn't mean it isn't democracy. To me, it's about cooperation as opposed to competition, and the liberal democracies sure suck at cooperating internally. Also, give me the kind that doesn't devolve into fascism and destroy the planet.

Personally, I have always felt that living in a liberal democracy was oversold to me growing up. If I spend most of my life at work yet I can't democratize the workplace, what fucking use is it to me?
