Yes ZULU democracy is a fools dream!! Which is exactly why WE DO NOT LIVE IN ONE! We are a Constitutional Republic! We have allowed, for years, the rabble rousers, the media, and even Congress to put forth the narrative, day after day, that we are a democracy, when we are not. But we are becoming one.
I swear, every day I hear someone say democracy this democracy that, well this is NOT a democracy, democracy is mob rule. We had better stop the thuggery and soon, or we will become mob rule!
Well, sort of my point. Only a republic of virtue can survive. Otherwise it degenerates into a democracy which can never work
Democracies become tyrannies which are at least functional.
