          Once you wrote it like this, it is comprehensible. Still, first time I heard it. Don’t know what handegg is too.

          After reading about the analogy, I fail to see which rules, process or competition was changed (or in this case, conversation) mid-play.

          I was consistently talking about China, I was consistently talking about their party system and I was consistently talking about it being non-democratic in comparison to Democratic party systems where there are mechanisms to prevent the tyranny of the majority.

          Also, the tyranny of the majority isn’t a new thing. The formationg of the modern democracy is circa 1800’s. It is a system that was conceived centuries ago. a century before communism. It’s not like I pulled a fast one here.

          I didn’t even say that it is a bad thing for fuck’s sake. I haven’t even displayed my actual opinion.

          I fail to see where the goalpost analogy fits here.
