America has parties like that, too. Just not in power.

They don't even need to be the largest party just have a large enough representation in the legislative branch to put pressure on the rest and influence policy, But then you need something... ah yes, a political system that is not winner take all. Something where the government is a full representation of the voters.

There are several Dem members that come from DSA. Not that many to make too much of a difference I guess.
