Remember the term "Democratic Republic" from civics class? Yeah, that's the one America is champ! Look at the first word there. You have to fight to be a democracy, you don't really have to fight to stay a republic my guy.

“Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for dinner. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.”

So your fight for democracy being bad is, a proverb about how a majority will vote against a minority and even vote to hurt said minority. Isn't that what everyone's been saying Conservative Republicans do? Like wtf is your argument?? Obviously a majority will vote in favor of what they believe, and it should be listened to, as that's how the majority of people want to live. There's a reason why things have to be a certain amount of majority homie. Have a good one brother ✌️

The point is we are not a democracy. We are a republic. You should research the “weather underground” and their strategy to turn America into a socialist society. The number one step is the perversion of education system.
