Malaysian politics is somewhat like the US, but more conservative.
The “Democrats” in Malaysia are somewhat conservative, but more supportive of non-Malays and non-Muslims.
One party,
DAP (rocket), is hated by extremist Malays, who accuse them of “Chinese communism” because most voters there are Chinese. Hilariously, DAP members sometimes promote their party in very stupid ways, like putting a
Christmas tree with the party logo at a Christian village!
The other,
Parti Sosialis Malaysia (Socialist Patty of Malaysia), is more closer to the SJWs of America, but are less rowdy.
Another notable liberal party in Malaysia is
PKR, run by Anwar. At least they seem more reasonable.
Our version of the “Republicans” are more stupid, but not so militant like QAnon. There’s
UMNO, a nationalist party that kept the Malay people with a spoonfed attitude, especially in rural areas, and keeping Malaysia backwards with its racist and paranoid rhetoric.
Then there are
Perkasa and
Bersatu, two more parties that are closer to nationalism and incompetence - they claim to defend Islam and the Malay race, but many of their members are corrupt. Bersatu was the party of Muhyiddin, the former prime minister who failed the country during the COVID pandemic.
There are several more parties for non-Malays like me:
MCA for the Chinese,
MIC for the Indians, and
Gerakan for anyone.
Last but not least are the worst of the bunch:
PAS, the Islamist party. Very notorious for demolishing Hindu temples, hating Christians, and
supporting Taliban, the scum of the world.
We don’t have an equivalent for libertarians in Malaysia.
What do you think of this corrupt
clusterfuck of a >society?
