To be fair parties themselves aren’t monoliths. I like Hu jintao’s politics a lot more than I like Xi pings. Factionalist abound. But as far I’ve seen with any communist state, they’ve always banned other parties defacto or dejure and they usually did that in the initial years of the state.
USSR, PRC, PRV, DPRK.
Having multiple parties allows for two important things: accountability and representation. Despite me disagreeing with someone’s politics I’d still want them to have some sort of representation. But it’s accountability that matters more to me.
The aforementioned governments do have accountability in whether the keys of power and people support them or not. But it’s a far less direct form than in an actual democracy and usually very proportionally disbalanced in the favor of the keys (ministers, army, or corporations).
Unions are good, but not enough in my opinion. But this is from my own rudimentary understanding of how it.
Yeah, governments and democratic structures are a little over my head. I think ultimately it’s a question of participation, belonging, and empowerment.
But I have no idea how to design a system that guarantees those things… And the education system has enough trouble getting people to understand democracy, let alone going beyond that.
I’m very confused on whether the keys to power system comes from the representative part of it being a representative democracy (single representatives needing key allies along the way), or whether it comes from the Capitalist self-interested parts, money in government, or whether it should be formalized into the system… Or whether eradicating it via looking at a direct participatory government run by a rotation of volunteers anyone could join would be better… Or some sort of block chain encrypted system… It all gets complicated pretty quick.
Not to mention it’s really NOT up for discussion/change at the best of times. So it seems we’re just locked into this slow moving system until it breaks down too much, and the cracks are showing as corporations get bigger and bigger.
Oh well, maybe someone will release a meaningful patch soon.

I wish people smarter than me would have an answer to this. At times I just want to hide in a hole and forget the world exists.
