Not a democrat, not even an american.

The us is no longer a democracy, and is fast becoming the next global pariah state.

It's still a democracy. There is still a lot of order and authority keeping things running. It's just a shit show right now. But places like Lemmy and other social media radicalizing people are trying to undo it

That's not what a democracy is. North Korea has a lot of order and authority keeping things running as well for example.

Every form of government requires that.

Kinda, but to be a democracy requires just a touch more. This might shock you, but declaring something does not make it true. You can't just yell "Freedom", "We are #1" and "This nation is a democracy".

I agree. I'll leave it at that.
