Exactly... obedience to the power and rules of an authoritarian central state. Democracy must be artificial in process, but controlled in outcome. Only the state is allowed to decide election outcome... not the peasants.

How so The people in Hungary voted for Orban in a democratic election. Just because he won’t be bullied by the EU makes his country undemocratic?

Orban refused to take in the hordes of “refugees” from Africa so now he’s being slandered and besmirched. As a result, Hungary might be one of the few places in Europe I might want to live in.

Keep in mind that the Coup Queen has been down in Brazil working on rigging that election in favor of the commie.

Elections are always considered fraud if a leftist LWO type does’t win. It is also perfectly okay to talk about the so called fraud.

IOW it no longer takes 51 percent of the vote to eat the sheep. Just like in the Euro Union.

Only the stupid and corrupt want a full democracy.

It’s a death sentence for any nation.

Ochlocracy.

Well, we aren’t a perfect democracy, either. And if I had my way, the 17th Amendment would be repealed, and democracy would also be thwarted by restricting the government back to its Constitutional limits.

The EU is a dictatorship run by descendants of the Third Reich, so there’s that.

I'm sure the U.S. has much say in the EU's decisions. We "project our power" all over the Western World and into much of the Third World. Germany is our puppet.

Says the European Parliament, one of seven branches of EU government and the only one that is elected, and cannot create initiatives of its own.

Idiots. Tell me again who voted for Ursla von der Leyen.

An “Electoral Autocracy” is still a democracy, as long as the population or their elected representatives vote to select the autocratic leader. No country on earth is a pure “democracy”, just varying forms of government that include direct elections in some form. Orban clearly won the election, so they redefine “democracy” to exclude Hungary. Why stop at calling him an autocrat? Just go straight to Nazi.

Thanks for sharing. Keep posting this TRUTH.

BTW, the foundation of America is not “life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.” It is TRUTHS.

Those are anti-Americans who deny us the freedom to share evidence of TRUTHS that a much higher murder rate is committed by blacks, that muslims bring problems, that COVID was not a serious threat for healthy young people, that vaxxes murdered, that Trump won 2020, that Jan 6 is a false flag, etc.
