Social democracy seems to be working better than most systems, including keeping the people interested in politics. Because the democracy works reasonably well. Scandinavian countries that have social democracy also have high election participation.
this. I want socialism and capitalism balanced. things that everyone needs should be available to everyone and not left to the market but unnecessary things like media and toys and whatnot the government should not be concerned about. Then there should be plenty of regulation to keep things safe. but when it comes down to democracy vs autocracy I want as much democracy as possible.
They are aware something is wrong. Not what’s causing it. The powerful have learned to scream “immigrant, immigrant,trans, gay, black!” when anyone looks their way, and assure you their big pile of cash is actually helping you by getting bigger.
What about social democracy?
What about it makes it so special that it can exist and not get exploited without vigilant population?
Every system needs awareness from people to keep functioning.

People are aware, that’s not the problem IMO.
Every system needs to adjust when people are aware, that’s why democracy works and autocracy not.
