Excellent post @adsactly, when reading your text I think about the name that I should put to the democracy of my country Venezuela, this is how should I say the form of government that my country handles? The current rulers say that democracy and participation are protagonists according to them where the greatest power is the people, the people are the ones who govern, but the reality is different, we have a centralist and authoritarian government, where a few control all public powers and we also have a parliamentary government that opposes the government, but this was neutralized by the mafias that control the country. The so-called revolutionaries are nothing more than a copy of Fidel and Che Guevara. If it is true that here there are elections every time but I think it is a trap of the government in office. Reading your publication I conclude that the form of government that prevails in Venezuela is Centralized Capitalist although they call it Socialism
The Venezuelan parliament has another parallel parliament because the minority wanted it that way, the little reds who, with a trap and conchupancia with the electoral power they control, placed the National Constituent Assembly to dictate laws that pleased them. In my country there is no democracy, here there is a dictatorship disguised as democracy with a people kneeling before a government that every day worsens their quality of life.
Once again thank you friend @adsactly for your information is an open door for all of us to express ideas and opinions with freedom and respect
