      Progressive writers have been BEGGING middle class Americans to travel abroad to see how the rest of the world works (without oligarchs) since Mark Twain.

      Lol, I'm not gonna pretend Taiwan politics aren't fucked up but there's no argument by which Taiwan "isn't a democracy" and the US is

      Taiwan has one of the most "vibrant" democracies in the world, different parties screaming at each other and brawling on the floor of Parliament and all that

      Honestly if you just *look* at the way they do business compared to how we do business, even without being able to understand the language at all, our country looks a lot more like the obvious oligarchy

      Democratic Senators just sitting there letting Mitch McConnell talk and not one of them so much as lets out a "BOOOOOO" or "BULLSHIIIIIIIT"

      Right, Senators used to fight each other a lot harder when we were a "younger" democracy, and now we're an "older" one Another way to say that is that we're transitioning from democracy to oligarchy

      I'm no fan of civility discourse, but it was not actually a healthier sign of democracy when Southern Senators were braining Northern Representatives on the House floor.

      Taiwan's parliamentary brawls are mostly performative and haven't resulted in any casualties as far as I'm aware

      It's their version of a filibuster -- the real kind, not the bizarrely genteel simulation we've somehow actually coded into Senate procedure It's what an opposition party does when they want to obstruct a vote

          You gotta kind of respect that Like they still use paper ballots specifically so that when you're asked to vote on something and you know you're in the minority but you find the inevitable outcome despicable you can go "FUCK THIS" and throw all the ballots in the air

          And then the Speaker has to choose between trying to get the staff to pick them all up only for you to scatter them again or giving in and calling a recess so people can negotiate in backchannels
