That's the biggest problem with a social democracy, it just takes one bad faith actor supported by Capital owners to completely derail the system of social safety nets that were built with good faith over almost 200 years...
Good faith is a bit of a weird way to say exploitation, slavery, genocide and war in the global south
I was more referring to good faith governance (govermeny working for its citizens best interests and not corporations), not saying that social democracy aren't fueled by those sources. But fuxk me for not writing an essay decrying every crime of social democracy's lmao my bad.
Np you'll get it right next time
That being said, it wasn't good faith that gave us those safety nets, it was the working class picking up arms and demanding it.
It seems that what you mean is social democracy broadly fails to meet the needs of the working class because it binds out fate to the exercise of ruling power.
