- throwaway2048 10y agoI see these comments without fail whenever anybody mentions the term democracy. Everybody knows what is meant by the term, your pedantry is neither insightful, nor interesting, its just distracting, pointless noise. Please stop.

This is what I see when I read your comment. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/democracy https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/democracy
