Either people are the fully-actualized individuals that democracy supporters claim, and are capable of considering all information and then determining a path for the state, or they are stupid morons who can’t tell the difference between fact and fiction, and thus should have no say in the way the government is run.

Pick one.

All of Europe are fascist regimes... public/private partnerships governing the peasants.

I’m old enough to remember when the EU was only intended to be a common trading block.

Beware the corporafascists.

Essentially, the E.U. is an global elitist institution that works to suppress the democratic republics in Europe in favor of centralized power in Brussels. Countries who defy the E.U. get their funds cut by the E.U. Commission, its executive branch.

A European superstate, united under tyrannical socialism...

Who was the guy that, first, tried this?

He was a vegetarian, Hunter Biden type painter, loved dogs, funny moustache...can't think of his name, right now.🤔

Everyone should ask “what is a democracy” every time some Marxist brings up “saving democracy”.

If they can’t answer ‘what is a woman’, they definitely can’t say what a democracy is.

I suspect they will come up with some witty answer they will all repeat infinitum but it just be another talking point, not a real answer.

At least bullied Hungary would have the opportunity to escape the EU once Russia conquers Ukraine according to the map I looked at.

We’re not a democracy.

We’re a constitutional republic.

Has anyone suspended or took away your 2A rights?

Has anyone shut down your freedom to sit at a computer key pad and post what you want?

It’ll come to YOU at 4 am. Maybe.

I know, hence my remark. Now tell that to pretty much everyone else on the planet. Personally I’d start with the left.
