First, democracy isn’t a binary. It’s not a case of “it’s either perfectly democratic or not democratic vat all”
Secondly, using the current day extreme thuggery of ICE as a refutation of a decrease in democracy compared to the recent past isn’t the home run you seem to think it is. In fact, it’s proof that you’re trying to hit the baseball for a field goal with a hockey stick.






















And I’m saying that that’s not true, while conceding the fact that it’s always been flawed.
Wrong again. You should REALLY let go of your false dichotomy that only a perfectly democratic system is a democracy at all. Otherwise you’ll never be satisfied OR right.
