There it is.
Leftist cuck-speak.
… The thesis of the states socialist is that no line can be drawn between private and public affairs which the state may not cross at will; that omnipotence of legislation is the first postulate of all just political theory. Applied in a democratic state, such doctrine sounds radical, but not revolutionary. It is only an acceptance of the extremest logical conclusions deducible from democratic principles long ago received as respectable. For it is very clear that in fundamental theory, socialism and democracy are almost, if not quite, one and the same. They both rest at bottom upon the absolute right of the community to determine its own destiny and that of its members. Men as communities are supreme over men as individuals. …That has been the definition of “democracy” by the left for over 1½ centuries, particularly by the US Democratic Party.
— Woodrow Wilson, Socialism and Democracy, 1887
Yep. In a free country challenging things you have reason to believe are wring or corrupt is what is supposed to happen.
