GulbuddinHekmatyar@lemmy.mltoPolitics@lemmy.ml•GOP party convention says quiet part out loud: "We do not want to be a democracy.”11·10 months agoA constitutional republic is a government in which officials are elected as representatives of the people, and must govern according to an existing constitution that limits the government’s power over its citizens.
Democracy, in etymology, means rule of the people, even through representatives, in Greek, and I don’t see restrictions of it being mutually exclusive
GulbuddinHekmatyar@lemmy.mltoPolitics@lemmy.ml•GOP party convention says quiet part out loud: "We do not want to be a democracy.”11·10 months agoYe did not address my definition and thus my argument over there, eh, you just came in here to play loose and argue with people…
GulbuddinHekmatyar@lemmy.mltoPolitics@lemmy.ml•GOP party convention says quiet part out loud: "We do not want to be a democracy.”11·10 months agoI mean, not all republics are democracies… and thus not necessarily dictatorship…
But it is fair to say most republics are representative democracies…

GulbuddinHekmatyar@lemmy.mltoPolitics@lemmy.ml•GOP party convention says quiet part out loud: "We do not want to be a democracy.”21·10 months agoI’m merely saying the message… these people go on vibes-based analysis/superstructure, though subconsciously, in their heart, they want to protect their settler-colonial interests of the economic base

- n. intentional dishonest act by not fulfilling legal or contractual obligations, misleading another, entering into an agreement without the intention or means to fulfill it, or violating basic standards of honesty in dealing with others.
GulbuddinHekmatyar@lemmy.mltoPolitics@lemmy.ml•GOP party convention says quiet part out loud: "We do not want to be a democracy.”21·10 months agoYeah… I think that’s part and parcel of that… I’m just saying the message… okay…
GulbuddinHekmatyar@lemmy.mltoPolitics@lemmy.ml•GOP party convention says quiet part out loud: "We do not want to be a democracy.”31·10 months agoYou saying this is the equivalent of asking me whether a sky is azul or blue…
Aren’t most democracies, like a representative democracy, not a direct one…
And so is that of America… though in a different way…

This nation was built from settler-colonialists who thought themselves to become the new pure free proprietors of capitalism… Besides, a social democracy a la Denmark would merely put bandages upon this as a solution…
