USA is an oligarchy. I can imagine americans disagree. But perhaps not lemmies.
Most of us wouldn't, and the rest of us will probably get on board if you rephrase oligarchy as "under the control of out of touch rich elites" because a lot of us are reflexively against anything that sounds educated.
Almost the entire world is, that's not controversial, that's fact
American here and I completely agree
