Who defines what the "right" political idea is? And do you really want to live in a society limited only to ideas that are deemed as the "right" ones by whoever has that power?
- ulrikrasmussen 2y agoThat's kind of how society works and why we have democracy.
- _heimdall 2y agoWhat do you mean? Who defines the "right" political ideas in a democracy? My understanding is that a democracy would exist to allow the majority of a society to define what they want, and that in the US we have a democratic republic because our founders still didn't trust the public enough to leave decisions entirely to a majority vote of the public.
