  1.  Geek X  My foot. Under Trump's watch, the USA got downgraded from "full democracy" to "flawed democracy". Britain's democracy is archaic and cryptic -- at times, they can't even figure it out themselves. Neither country is an example for others to follow.

  2.  Geek X  So you decided to steer the discussion away from democratic credentials. As to the EU, I always found it hilarious how Nigel Farage was a shoe-in for the European Parliament, but time and again the House of Commons proved a bridge too far for the poor sap. Please elaborate how your tautological "freedom and liberty" manifest themselves better in "Anglo Western countries". Also, if we look at their political leanings, the USA, the UK and Australia currently have right-leaning governments, but Canada and New Zealand have left-leaning ones. In your book, shouldn't the Canucks and the Kiwis then be communists, too? Could the explanation for this strange anomaly be that you simply haven't got a clue?
