#ShowerThoughts: Imagine political parties that were global, instead of per-country, and never have to face elections in which they're accountable to the public. Social media platforms are pretty much that.

I welcome the millions of new members who have joined the fediverse.party since late last year. We value quality over quantity. Every one of you that participates in community here, in good faith, makes the verse a more valuable experience for evening else.
Thanks : )
I know it’s not your point, but political parties are kind of global. Some anyway.
There are associations of various parties across countries like greens, social democrats, neoliberal parties etc. And of course that’s how Marxism started as the socialist international. :) The associations make more sense when there is some sort of political unity say in the Europe Union or semi-connected countries like Australia and New Zealand.
