“Calling it all “Democracy” just like Pres. Wilson did”
It IS democracy.
In its devolved form: Ochlocracy.
There is no law, only the mob.
Yep, unfortunately!

Although it’s site is down right now.
Mob rule that is what democracy is. Wilson called it “making the world safe for democracy”. Of course his renewed interest in all this was after his stroke(s) and after his wife died (who was running things illegally, much as Jill Biden illegally has signed exec. orders). He had to rescue the abysmal result of the US being dragged into WWI, the league of nations, etc. The two truly band-aid “missions” to help the White Russians— were cast as “keeping supplies from the Germans, and the bolsheviks getting them for use against the White Russians. Wilson’s seeking democracy could never see the bolsheviks for what they were— such was his utopic and naive view.
FDR right in there with him, and for the same reason—Soviet agents.
Here is a shot version
1. Corrupt the young: get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial; destroy their ruggedness.
2. Get control of all means of publicity. Get peoples’ minds off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books, plays and other trivialities.
3. Divide people into hostile groups by constantly harping on controversial matters of no importance.
4. Destroy the peoples’ faith in their natural leaders by holding the latter up to contempt, ridicule and . (speak against, condemnatory utterances)
5. Always preach ;true democracy; but seize power as fast and as ruthlessly as possible.
6. By encouraging government extravagance, destroy its credit; produce fear of inflation, rising prices and general discontent.
7. Foment strikes in vital industries; encourage civil disorders and foster a lenient and soft attitude on the part of government toward these disorders.
8. By special argument cause a breakdown of the old moral virtues; honesty, sobriety, continence, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness.
9. Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext with a view of confiscation of them and leaving the population helpless.
