Are you serious? Is this some kind of a joke? Am I gonna be on, wacha call that show? Candid Camera?
The point is Hitler did NOT assemble an army and took power through bloodshed and overthrowing the government, he was democratically elected as in, he went through the system and got into power as allowed by the democratic system.
Technically his party won and he was as a consequence appointed yes. If it had not been Hitler it would have been someone else from the Nazi party.
Trump did not win the popular vote and he is still the president, is he not? One may agree or disagree with Trump but his election followed the American system and you cannot compare his election to some dictator in Africa that kills everybody on his way to the presidential seat.
So my point about democracy not being a direct cause for peace as a peaceful union like the EU is, still stands and all the obfuscation in the world won't change that.
EDIT: And since today's theme seems to be how to try to find fault in what I say by trying to take one or two words out of context let me clarify that I'm NOT saying democracy is not a factor in peace, I'm saying it's definitely NOT the main factor. A peaceful union is the main factor and democracy kind of makes a peaceful union, complete. But democracy ALONE does not make peace as shown in Nazi Germany.
