There is honorable compromise and honorable bipartisanship to be made in Congress, but these political deals and compromises on issues are made by such political parties as liberals or conservatives, to the exclusion of Marxists on the left, and fascists on the right.
Neither democracy nor constitutional republicanism can survive when Marxists or fascists are representative of Left or Right views. They want one-arty rule, and never compromise even when they lie and agree to. These deceptions are temporary illusions of deal-making and willingness to work with the opposition to gain ground. Once the extremists and radicals get strong again, they will forsake their previous agreements, and go for absolute power and control of a country once again. They betray those that trusted them.
These extreme, totalitarian unitary party machines leave society where factions war all the time and the strong or more brutal wins all the marbles. Supremacy not peaceful compromise is how they keep the peace, but that coerced, force peace is illusory too, and conflict will ignite again as soon as their grip on the people is weakened as it inevitably will be, sooner or later.
Oner cannot criticize the government nor dissent. The authoritarian government disallows informative or entertaining dialoguing about different ideas and proposals, when free speech is canceled and once the victorious, secret police, with automatic weapons, are able, without pushback, to kick your door in without cause and haul you off to the gulag.
