US never had a democracy. Two parties assembly rather the bad cop / good cop scenario than a true democracy where people have control, built bottom up. However this illusion worked well up until now when oligarchies started to rise by simply putting a mirror on the front of that so called democracy. These new regimes have an easy job since the old system bleeds from all parts. I’m a big fan of democracy and oligarchies are the way back, not the way forward. However I’m skeptic if humanity is capable to invent a forward looking new system in the next years.
