Do you all still have elections up there or have they been suspended to protect your Democracy from Team Bad?
Yes we have elections. They comprise of 6 months of the state run media, public service unions, activists, academics and so on telling you that you are a racist, misogynistic, homophobic, planet killing, capitalist pig that hates poor people, if you don’t vote for the left or far left or far far left party.

State run media is not a feature. Another government monopoly.
USA has PBS and NPR which lean left along with all major network channels and major newspapers.
Fox News and business are cable channels. Most of their staff lean left. They live in New York or New Jersey. I’m not talking about the anchors and tv 📺 personalities.
WSJ editorial is establishment conservative who dislike Trump the person. They agree with some of his policies but not immigration. The rest of the paper is younger and left leaning.
Hopefully the rise of substack and rumble and other independent media will continue because the corporate media can’t be trusted.
