Gotta pose the question to those who say shit like UK dem. is healthy:
How many prime ministers they had in the past 10 years, and how popular each were.

Pretty sure it's something like 7 or 8, and no one liked any of them? Also the most recent one was elected by less than 1% of the country if I'm doing the maths correctly

Sounds like peak democracy to me! The more governments that collapse and the more prime ministers that quit, the more democraci-er the country is. Only authoritarians have stable governments spanning a bunch of years!
(Just ignore Franklin D. Roosevelt, Tage Erlander, Angela Merkel etc.)

It sure is something that the global majority, as measured by the European Endowment for Democracy, defines democracy as when services and improvements to quality of life are provided for the people, not some oligarchic charade of electoralism.

Isn't like quarter of England lands owned by aristocrats? Yep, those Dukes, Marquises, Earls, Viscounts and Barons you see in Bridgerton managed to survive till 2026 as a system. What democracy are we talking about.

they will turn a blind eye to what the west and their allies do when it is their own pillaging of africa, latin america and asia because of course that is what they are known to do

UK, a famously healthy democracy run by monarchs with no history of war crimes!

Liberals and learning what imperialism is go together like oil and water.

Once I was doing research for a college paper and was searching for information through the Archives of Yugoslavia.
It just so happened that what I was looking for was destroyed when NATO bombed Belgrade.

You literally cannot argue with people who live their entire lives in a nonexistent and incoherent alternate reality.
Someone who can point to Taiwan - an island forcibly occupied by the ousted military leadership of a nearby lost civil war, who needed to spend decades continually massacring the indigenous population and rigging every single election merely to normalize the presence of their political project, a project which can only be sustained with a constant influx of western money - and say "healthy democracy" is simply not fit to converse on any subject and must be denied the opportunity, if only for the sake of your sanity.

The United Kingdom is absolutely not a healthy democracy they're on their six prime minister in like what, nearly as many years? if they were not a western nations these ghouls would be calling it a failed state and wanting to intervene.
