Not sure if we should be joking about what could easily be (or become) the thing that ends democracy.

- sampo 13y agoI guess it's the end of democracy when you no longer can joke about something.

- venomsnake 13y agoEven in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe there was democracy. There were election held, with very little fraud. I remember my father taking me to the voting booths when I was a kid - there were only red and orange ballots inside (the orange were the Communist party subsidiaries the Farmers Party). Communists won 80% of the votes the farmers 20. We had elections, we had democracy, we could vote. We lacked freedom and choice.
- afterburner 13y agoWhen people say "democracy", they don't actually mean "one party democracy".
