I don't have Muslim friends who preach for all out jihad and the destruction of American democracy.

I don't have conservative friends who preach for all out insurrection and the destruction of American democracy.

Some choices aren't difficult.

America has democracy??

[–] [email protected] 23 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Officially.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Allegedly

It's a Republic because the wealthy knew the people would get it wrong and they needed representative government rather than democracy

Not only does it have democracy, it also has socialism! You just have to be ultra rich or a mega corporation.

To be fair, subsidies aren't really Socialism. Socialism is more about who owns the Means of Production than it is who gets the benefits from the state.
