“There is growing consensus that populism constitutes a grave threat to liberal democracy,”

Which is very different than regular democracy.
The problem with democracy is they will let any citizen participate.

Go populism! Globalism is a way to subjugate all.

_______________________________________________________

Notice how democracy becomes a bad word when it doesn’t lead to left-wing social policies. The reality is that democracy per se isn’t really valuable in and of itself. It’s just a means to creating a certain world order with a certain, narrow set of social values (namely moral indifference and a hefty dose of socialism to rehab society from the ill-effects of moral indifference).
