re: Stop acting like we’re not a democracy, we’re a republic. We’re both.

The dimtards push the democracy angle and refuse to say constitutional republic because they want to get rid of the electoral college.

---

They also want to get rid of the constitution, another pesky document that blocks them from having a pure Democracy.

. They specifically stressed it was not a democracy,

They specifically stressed it was not a pure/direct democracy.

That's a hyper-specific type of democracy, which nobody believes we have as our system today.

quote:

---

considered democracy a bad form of government.

---

Again, they considered a specific form of democracy a bad form of government, which isn't applicable to this discussion.

That's the dishonesty/conflation at the heart of this issue.

You're starting your point off with a falsehood to build your "logic" around.

You suck so fricking hard please start shutting the frick up

This is not an absolute truth.

If you understand cause/effect, it absolutely is.

My logic is you suck. No one has time for your faggy pedantry

quote:

---

Our winner take all format is the democracy aspect to our system different from the power sharing of a parliamentary system

---

The Soviet Union had a Democracy. You could only vote for one party, but it was a democracy if you go by the new leftist definitions.

quote:

---

The Constitutional aspect is what really protects us.

The republican aspect still instills fear of tyranny if the other side wins a majority of the governing body. That's why the very next step in the apocalypse fetishizing is to claim that other side will subdue the Constitutional limits of government and protections of citizens.

Your argument goes out the window if the marxists expand and stack the court.

There is NOTHING in our constitution saying how many Justices sit on the supreme court.

quote:

---

I vote in local elections for specific issues all the time that involve no "shadow oligarchy",

---

Your local elections are the closet to a real democracy we have.

Except, the representatives you vote for arent beholden to you, they are beholden to big interest just like the federal govt.

You of all people should understand this.

Your argument goes out the window if the marxists expand and stack the court.

You literally just displayed exactly what I pointed out in my quote

That's what you did in the above-quoted text.

quote:

---

There is NOTHING in our constitution saying how many Justices sit on the supreme court.

---

There is alos nothing that says fate wouldn't allow another scenario like the Trump admin where a non-DEM gets to appoint a disproportionate amount of justices, or that the GOP couldn't stack the court themselves in response.

But, again, you are displaying that the republican aspect of our government still creates the same fear of tyranny that the low-IQ "democracy is bad" NPC talking point argues. Your exact argument relies on the actions of our representatives, not our direct vote, which slides the analysis to the republican aspects of our government directly.
