	'''One-party state''' is a euphemism for dictatorship. Although the [[People's Republic of China]] is officially a [[political party\|multi-party]] state, with a Peasant's Party, it is in fact subordinate to the Communist Party. Also, the [[Wikimedia]] "Board of Trustees" consists of three members who are co-owners of bomis.com, one of whom is '''dictator for life''', and two others who are "elected" from the "Wikipedians" and no doubt easily removed by the three. This too is a one-party state, which claims to represent a [[consensus]], but has no checks on that other than its own opinions.		'''One-party state''' is a euphemism for dictatorship.
