We have heard dozens of times in the last couple of years that one thing or another was going to destroy our Democracy. It started with Donald Trump, whose sheer existence was the ultimate threat to our Democracy.

Democracy Isn’t the Solution. It’s the Problem.
It’s astonishing, as you look down the list of election results, how often the races are evenly split: 51 to 48, 49 to 47, 48.3 to 48.1, and so on.
To Democrats, It is Only “Democracy™” When What They Want Wins!
I know (I know!) another post about the Left and Democracy™, but I keep getting ideas, and darned if I can’t stop sharing them. This one popped into my head while I was walking around with a leaf blower strapped to my back—idle time, like a long drive and no radio reception or standing in line at the bank (they feel the same to me).
Abortion and Democracy
Democrats love to talk about Democracy and how it’s on the ballot or in danger. They also love abortion – so much that killing a newborn in their Democracy is a protected right, and that should scare the crap out of everyone.
NYT Poll: Democrats and the Media are a Bigger Threat to “The Democracy™” Than Republicans
The economy looks like a homeless camp after a hurricane, and all Democrats can do is point and shout, “look, abortion!” I’ve already pegged that as little more than a desperate get-out-the-vote strategy for low-info Lefties, though it may not be working.
To Dems ‘Democracy’ Does Not Mean What They Want You to Think It Means
When Democrats prattle on about “defending” or “protecting” Democracy, the pat response from the right is ‘we live in a Republic.’ That’s a fact, but it is not compelling if you have to explain, and if you do, odds are you’ve lost them. So, what might carry more weight?
Against Democracy Worship
If you would be so charitable with your time as to truly contemplate this piece (perhaps at length), I would sincerely like to impress upon you something of the most extreme importance in political thought.
America’s Republic Is the Only Acceptable Form of Government
It would be laughable if it wasn’t just so pathetic how the Left keeps trying to paint conservatives, Republicans or anyone else, who will not drop on their knees and worship their absurd evil god of Socialism. History, the real kind, not the revised make-believe versions the progressives push, tells us that Socialism does not … Read more
To The Left, The Goal of Democracy is Always Tyranny
The easiest way to determine how the party in power wants you to think (hint: it’s always the Democrats) is to read the messages their propagandists send out for your consideration.
Please, Let’s Not Play It Again Uncle Sam.
Russia invades Ukraine and every politician and talking head is now shouting “Democracy is at stake” so, let’s look at our track record for going to war to “Save Democracy.”
Career Politicians and the modern Democrat Party in the USA
I do my best to be a non-partisan writer when it comes to politics, but at some point, one must stand for reason, justice, and reality. We can only spin ourselves into a fictional state of being for so long before it becomes exceedingly dangerous to ignore what is happening on our planet.
Texas Dems Who Fled to DC File Lawsuit Blaming Republicans For Their Fleeing the State
If you recall, nearly 60 Texas unmasked Democrats fled the state in planet-killing chartered planes so they could avoid participating in Democracy. After arriving in DC, several came down with COVID, all of which appears to be the fault of Texas Republicans if you can stop laughing long enough to read their complaint.
The Real “Worst Attack on Our Democracy”
This: Setting aside for the moment the question whether secession is actually even an “attack on our democracy” … and also setting aside the fact that America is a Republic, not a Democracy … Beschloss is so full of excrement. There are much better choices for “worst attack on our democracy” than what was at … Read more
WashPo – By the Way, That Story We Wrote About Trump Was a Lie
Remember that time, at journalism camp, on selective editing day, when you learned to take someone out of context for partisan interests. It was a crowded class. Lots of “reporters” there, including people from the Washington Post, where democracy doesn’t die in darkness; it gets shivved in broad daylight.
Notable Quote – WHOSE “Democracy”?
Reformatted, emphasis mine:
Who’s a Threat to ‘Our Democracy’?
When progressives single out threats to ‘our democracy,’ what they mean is their democracy.
Joe Biden: “If you can’t get the votes … you can’t [legislate] by executive order unless you’re a dictator.”
Joe Biden has set a new record. In the first five days of his ‘tenure’ as President, he has signed more executive orders than any president in history.
Statehood for Syria and Afghanistan …
So did you know that on “Day One” Imposter-President Joe Biden reinvaded Syria: If we are going to indefinitely maintain military occupations of Syria and Afghanistan, then why don’t we just make them States? This last election was all about democracy prevailing, right? Shouldn’t the people of Syria and Afghanistan have a say in the … Read more
Are Socialists for Democracy or Tyranny?
Conservatives are destroying democracy. You have probably heard this Leftist talking point many times. The response to this claim is: “We’re not a democracy, we’re a constitutional republic.” This leads to an important question: Are there any differences between the two, and if so, why do they matter?
Do Morals and Ethics Shape Policy?
Have you ever heard a politician say, “In the next election I will support whatever policies the polls tell me are most likely to get me elected”? Think about it for just a second. I bet you haven’t. If a candidate did say something like that, wouldn’t you find it distasteful? It would exhibit a lack of character.
Democracy is Tyranny
Democracy is tyranny. It was true in ancient Greece and it is true today. America was designed to foster a spirit of freedom. The nation, through the Constitution, as written, promotes enterprise among its people. The U.S. Constitution intends to thwart tyranny from majority rule. America is a free-market society.
