Sorry but we are a Democracy. Not a pure democracy but one nonetheless.
Why do Republicans keep saying we are not?
Because they know that can not retain power in a democratic election.

That's also when they tend to mock "liberty".When you idiots scream out democracy, it's when you don't get your way due to Constitutional limits.

Or when California voters decide against making gay marriage legal?Where is their support for "democracy" when a majority of parents a school board meeting don't want sex ed materials appropriate for teenagers (maybe) being part of a 1st grade curriculum?
Yep that’s how Republicans feel
The right-wing war on democracy continues.5th Circuit Rules Texas Lawmakers Can Withhold Documents About Voter Suppression Law S.B. 1
WASHINGTON, D.C. — On Wednesday, May 17, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reversed a lower court’s decision compelling four Republican members of the Texas Legislature — Sen. Bryan Hughes, Sen. Paul Bettencourt, Rep. Briscoe Cain and Rep. Andrew Murr — to produce nearly 300 documents related to Texas’ omnibus voter suppression law, Senate Bill 1. This decision stems from a lawsuit filed by multiple voting rights and civic organizations challenging S.B. 1 for violating the Voting Rights Act, Americans With Disabilities Act and U.S. Constitution.
Although these four Republican legislators are not defendants in the case, they were served with third-party subpoenas from four sets of plaintiffs (LULAC Texas, Texas AFT, Texas Alliance for Retired Americans and Voto Latino) seeking documents and communications that the plaintiffs believed would shed light on the legislative process surrounding S.B. 1.
This is not the only discovery issue ongoing in the 5th Circuit pertaining to Texas legislators: In a different federal lawsuit challenging the state’s maps drawn with 2020 census data, multiple sets of Republican legislators are fighting deposition and document subpoenas because they do not want to share how they drew the new districts.

Color me unsurprised that Repubs would rather keep secret the details of their efforts surrounding voter suppression and gerrymandering. "Democracy dies in darkness."
Libertarians too. We aren't a Democracy, we are a republic. Democracy is how Democrats oppress 49% of the country. In a republic, we all have rights. Our country was set up far beyond 51%, it was supposed to take overwhelming majorities for you to tread on our rights like you're doing now with tiny leads
What leads?
Why do you think they prefer the courts to get what they want?
Democracy is 51 people out of a hundred saying the property of the other 49 now belongs to the 51.
Or Socialism....but that's usually about 5 out of a hundred
Socialism is 5 out of a 100 taking away from 40, distributing most of it to themselves, and then giving the crumbs to the 55 and saying "we do it for you"
That's where we throw a hypocrisy party. Everyone is invited!Where is their support for "democracy" when a majority of parents a school board meeting don't want sex ed materials appropriate for teenagers (maybe) being part of a 1st grade curriculum?

Voter suppression is a lefty myth. Even Stacy Abram's claims of vote suppression were soundly defeated in court because she couldn't prove any vote suppression.5th Circuit Rules Texas Lawmakers Can Withhold Documents About Voter Suppression Law S.B. 1

And what about the minority fucking you blind?That's why it must be constitutionally limited. No one can be expected to consent to democratic government if the majority can literally fuck you blind.
Nowhere does it say anything about overwhelming majorities.Libertarians too. We aren't a Democracy, we are a republic. Democracy is how Democrats oppress 49% of the country.
