Hilarious

Why do you think that we have the maga movement? It's based on white fear.

Why are you acting like a racist?

Niether representative democracy, nor republic means direct voting on the issues.

It means that you vote for governing representatives.

What part of we are both a republic and a representative democracy do you not get? They are synonymous.

that they are two different things,,

the question is specific as to what kind of system we have,,

the correct answer is a constitutional republic not a representative democracy,,

why are you so afraid to admit that fact??

Take a Citizenship Quiz | CONSTITUTION USA with Peter Sagal | PBS

One of the questions was: What type of government is America (something like that) and the 4 possible answers were:

1. Monarchy
2. Progressive Fascism
3. Democracy, or
4. Republican

The correct answer is that we are a Republican form of government, but the Progressive Fascists at PBS say that we are a "democracy"

Correct answer would be a Constitutional Republic.

Most should learn that in at least middle school

If we were a representative democracy, we wouldn't have idiots in power.

Just like we voted for the disastrous Citizens United ruling.

Nobody voted for Kamala Harris

How about you try to constructively finish your thoughts and actually explain in what way our country is not a representative democracy.

Why are you acting like a racist?

Hilarious

Pointing out the cause of the rise of maga isn't racist. It's a response of conservatives to America becoming less white and more diverse.

[AntonToo]

Different HOW dummy?

They are both about vertical reponsibility of the governing representatives to the common people, the voters.

At it's core, that is the foundation of our government.

Holy shit you are fucking stupid.

Pay attention:

It is a form of representative democracy.
It is also called a republic.

Both are true and synon have the same meaning. That meaning is "government where voters elect representatives that govern them"
