I just want to point out that the majority of people are manipulated by massive corporations on a daily basis. They just use it for immediate profit by getting them to buy things. They could easily start manipulating people for political gain, of which they’ve tried in the past with varying degrees of success.
This is expressly what a constitutional federal republic (a specific type of democracy) is meant to prevent.
I know exactly what fascism is. Being anti-democracy does not in itself make you a fascist, but it’s a very strong sign that you are. Either way you’re an asshole and I don’t particularly care what flavor of asshole you are.
Never thought being pro-freedom meant fascist to intellectuals such as yourself. A system that could swing from election to election based on one vote seems pretty fucking horrible tbh, especially in the US with our deep partisan divdes. Imagine the sheer horror the libs would go through whe the country went 50.0000000001 to 49.9999999999 conservative and abortion became illegal for 4 years! Bet you’d hate democracy then!
For the record, I’m solidly pro choice, pro 2A, athiest and couldn’t care less who you want to spend your naked time with. Find another lazy insult, fascist already wore itself out, and it doesn’t describe the people you think it does - bet you agree with keeping Trump off the ballot. “Democratic”, indeed.

If you’re incapable of clicking a link, we can go to the host stand and get you a placemat and some crayons. The US is not a democracy, by definition, regardless of what your kindergarten teacher is telling you.
You’re acting like a child, so I’ll speak to you like you are one. You’re too lazy, dumb or all the above to click a link that explains in detail how the US isn’t a democracy, it’s a republic. How the fuck this thread devolved into that I can’t even remember.
And I believe the phrase is “mentally challenged”. Don’t get canceled “my G”.
I dunno if you’re retarded and worthless or just retarded.
There’s no link above you waste of space. Go have your keyboard seizure elsewhere you window licking shit rag. Lmfao
Also back to the first point. Your “definition” of democracy was still wrong lol so I dunno where you’re getting the air of superiority from. No go be stupid somewhere else
In other words it’s a shitty democracy.
Democracy, by definition, is 50% +1 vote, otherwise known as “mob rule”. That would be an even shittier system to live under.
Ok fascist.
