Dude, half of my country has been ruled by elected socialist for 70 years now. Socialists have been part of the federal government since the 2nd World War and in their prime they formed a purple government together with the liberals.

Our most liberal party is struggling to get enough votes to participate in tge elections. What you're on about?

PTB has a decent and growing foothold in Belgium, which is fantastic, but that's about as good as it gets in bourgeois democracy, and speaks more to the effectiveness of parties like the PTB than the effectiveness of bourgeois democracy.
