So I'm not trying to pick a fight (I may very well be agreeing with your views as far as I know), but I'm genuinely still lost at what you mean.
I don't think I see what's wrong with that direction, unless I'm reversing it along a different axis than what you have in mind.
I were to attempt to reverse that statement it would say "this can happen in a democratic country, a country doesn't need to have fascists and eugenicists in power => therefore the USA does it".
I mean I know the USA does this, but stating it can happen in a democratic country therefore it must happen in the USA isn't how causality works I think.
Wait, are you saying the reversed implication is that the USA isn't actually a democracy and or that it is a fascist country?
- Schroedingersat 4y ago> USA isn't actually a democracy and or that it is a fascist country If it did and does facist things in opposition to what the majority of its residents want then yeah. Walks like a duck and all that.
- vanderZwan 4y agoThank you for clarifying, I can see that argument (although truth be told I think no country on earth truly qualifies as a real democracy in the way that their governments function).
