But this was not what the Original Comment was about...? This is not about society as a whole, but rather, well, the nation we live in being ruled in a certain way. A government for the people, by the people, seems pretty democratic to me.
And Yes, I know there's problems. I know one's job often isn't managed in a democratic fashion (although that does exist, mind you). I know there's corruption and misinformation and whatever else, but at the end of the day, my vote counts. And so does everyone else's.
This is about as simple as it gets - you either live in a democratic society or you don't.
If it's a case of the former it doesn't matter how hard and for how long political racketeers and their media cronies have shoved a buzzword down your throat, does it now?
