This might be the single worst argument against democracy I've ever seen. Try "tyranny of the majority" instead if you want to argue against democracy and make the point on why America is a republic.

my point was in fact about the tyranny of the majority... that's what formed the soviet union... you weren't aware?

the thing you so called "socialists" don't get about "socialism" and communism is that at its core its about  stripping away rights to reduce people down to the lowest common denominator... for "equality"

which any sensible person realises right away is not desirable in the least if you actually want to help people, especially the poor

 

i'm still waiting to hear about how hitler privitised everything and yet still controlled the economy btw

Lol so first you believe that the guy who allied with the German capitalists is a socialist and now you believe that the Soviet Union is an example of tyranny of the majority.

Can you let us know where you get your Kool-Aid? It sounds like some good stuff.

Edit: Oh also nice doublethink, there you agree with me that democracy in the Soviet Union was eroded by authoritarianism and now here you try to say it was democratic.
