Yuck.

Must be “democracy.”

One large group suppresses and intimidates a smaller group.

Without the electoral college and the same two senators for each state instead of proportionately more for CA and NY, democracy would mean all the smaller states (”flyover” or GOP states) would have no funding and no chance to be heard in DC for their views and needs.

Democracy is a word often used in place of Communism or Socialism for the same situation.

That’s why Democrats use “democracy” twenty times a day.

I tried explaining that we have a republic, not a democracy, to a young lady a couple of days ago. I got a very sarcastic response. I then explained that in a democracy we could vote to deprive women of their voting rights by a simple majority vote - no constitution to stand in the way. I got another sarcastic response. That one is truly beyond reason.
