So you don’t actually care about being democratic as end in itself then.
I care about representative democratic republic with system of check and balances. Basically the system majority of people imagine when someone mentions democratic countries. I think it’s the best system that showed itself to provide prosperity, stability, respect for human rights and so on.
Grouping them into distinct parties doesn’t make it more democratic and I can’t see how it adds checks and balances.
The problem there is with checks and balances. Allowing other political parties to take your place if you f up, is an important part of it.

In most modern democracies there are only two parties that actually matter. So this argument doesn’t hold water to me.

Said system doesn’t work. It’s led to people starving on the streets, exploitation of poorer countries, and is propped up largely by war and suffering. Sure it’s better than feudalism I guess, but feudalism was itself better than slave society. It’s time to build something better.
