- a_imho 8y agoI would not really call recycling some elements of the ruling elite every x years a democracy either.
- raxxorrax 8y agoWho else has a better claim?
- HunOL 8y agoDemocracy is exactly about majority.
- natch 8y agoYes, obviously. And sometimes that’s the problem.
- anoncake 8y agoA tyranny of the majority is still better than a tyranny of the minority. At least more people get to be tyrants.
