Okay, show your work. What evidence is there that Sharpton meant Pure Democracy?
quote:

Comprehensive reforms, such as an expansion to the bench, are crucial to rebuilding trust, safeguarding our rights, and reestablishing a fair and impartial court,” said the Rev. Al Sharpton.

”Please explain why do you think barley beer is better than wheat beer“

“Because most fish swim.“

about the same level of relevance between the two statements

someone advocating for the “popular vote“ over the electoral college is advocating a “pure democracy.“

Imagine simping for Al Sharpton and calling yourself an “unbiased center-right libertarian”.

Indeed. Let’s see what I SAID about him:

someone should tell BOTH of those yahoos (that includes Sharpton) that the United States is both a “democracy“ and “republic.“ A republic is one of several FORMS of democracy.

Sharpton is an OG.

Original Grifter.

That clown was grifting way before the term itself even found its way into modern, everyday usage.

which had exactly zero relevance to anything under discussion in this thread. In the world of non sequiturs, it was a prize winner.

I made fun of your bizarre, irrelevant post. I said nothing in favor of Sharpton.

Sure it did. It’s an example of people like Sharpton supporting pure democracy.

You just can’t help yourself, you have to defend democrats because you’re one of them and you agree with them.

the best description of the US government is that it is “a representative democracy in the form of a federal, constitutional republic.“
thus dependent on ethical, fair elections

If elections get cheated it enters a dimension where:

"representative", "democracy", "constitutional", and "republic" are discarded in their entirety.

...an intentional attack on what it is supposed to be. Nefarious actors are taking illicit and illegal control of the better features of the intended description. This can be defined as seditious usurpation.

THAT is where we have been since November, 2020 and January 6, 2021.

If we were a democracy, 50.1% of voters could put blacks back into slavery. Fortunately, in a republic, they're protected.

Then republicans must be doing something right if it pisses off Al. Al has made a living from race hating his whole life. He is a worthless piece of human waste.
