Once you wrote it like this, it is comprehensible. Still, first time I heard it. Don’t know what handegg is too.
After reading about the analogy, I fail to see which rules, process or competition was changed (or in this case, conversation) mid-play.
I was consistently talking about China, I was consistently talking about their party system and I was consistently talking about it being non-democratic in comparison to Democratic party systems where there are mechanisms to prevent the tyranny of the majority.
Also, the tyranny of the majority isn’t a new thing. The formationg of the modern democracy is circa 1800’s. It is a system that was conceived centuries ago. a century before communism. It’s not like I pulled a fast one here.
I didn’t even say that it is a bad thing for fuck’s sake. I haven’t even displayed my actual opinion.
I fail to see where the goalpost analogy fits here.
Look at those goalposts fly
Sounds like an American football reference, didn’t get it.
“moving the goalposts” is an informal fallacy, and sports other than handegg have them, so the analogy being made should be perfectly comprehensible

idk take it up with the person who said you were changing standards
Sorry, I thought the same person who stated, answered. Thanks for clearing that up though.
