You're just wrong about this. A democracy is the rule by the people. That's why the Declaration of Independence says rulers derive their just powers from the go

You're just wrong about this. A democracy is the rule by the people. That's why the Declaration of Independence says rulers derive their just powers from the governed. Democracies aren't particularly good at ensuring a peaceful transition of power as history shows (just look at the Roman Republic). "Peaceful transition of power" is a phrase that's not even relevant to other forms of government where one administration rules indefinitely. >The crowd is intensely stupid (as a vote on lockdown would certainly reveal) Oh, thanks for admitting that lockdowns are undemocratic.
