Representative Democracy
A joke that involves freedoms and "choice". In reality you have no power, it allows gerrymandering, if the two conspires (Republican+Democrat, due to first pass the post, shit system BTW), you have no choice in reality.

Representative Democracy
The true form of Democracy that the United States and many other countries are living under. A form of government where people elect other people who they believe represent their ideals and will make laws that will reflect the will of the people. Often just called Democracy wrongly where in a democracy all the people in a country would vote on all laws which is very rare.

Crony Representative Democracy
A representative democracy where representatives are chosen not by the people but by the networks that fund, nominate, and protect them. Constituents get a voice, but the real conversations happen in back rooms where representatives and donors trade favors. Legislative sessions become theater while actual decisions are made in private meetings. The representative is supposed to represent the people, but in crony representative democracy, they represent the networks that put them there.
Example: "The congressman held town halls, answered letters, and voted the way his donors told him to. Crony representative democracy: representation for the public, loyalty for the cronies."
