Reply to comment by Generic-Commie in Peru protests: 17 dead in fresh clashes as calls grow for President Boluarte to resign | Peru by Generic-Commie

> direct democracy, council democracy, democratic centralism like some of the parties in Peru rn

Translation: referendums, local governments, and single party rule

So your revolutionary new idea is to empower the existing parties you like through voting…? What is the point of violently destroying a system and starting from scratch… if you’re end goal is replacing it with a similar or identical system anyway? Why not just remove the elements of corruption instead?
