I think the 'Jump the Shark' moment was the moment it became vogue to refer to anyone who doesn't politically align with you in any way or for any reason as a "threat to democracy."

At least that's pretty much when I decided that this word is now void of pretty much any functional meaning.

Which is weird coming from a group who thought Russian Collusion investigations and banning legit stories on twitter were protecting democracy.

These people are being gaslighted and mainstream democrats are extremely obedient people.

Oh I agree. It's progeny of calling all opponents fascist.

It's an attack on the "populism" aspect of the Trump era for sure. That's democracy, but it's bad democracy
