Words have meaning. Remember THAT the next time you castigate a grammar Nazi. It was your lack of caring for established norms that lost you your country. America is dead, and you unfeeling, uncaring lazy fuckers killed it.

Shove your democracy straight up your asses…and merry christmas.

“Our Democracy” refers to the nation that they want to have, not the nation put forth by the founders and existed until Lincoln’s War of Northern Aggression. “Our Democracy” is a new concept that is more of a socialist state controlled by DC. Iran is a democracy in the same way in that the people get to vote, it’s just choosing for candidates approved by their actual powers in control.

Once upon a time the Democrats, before total convergence were, for the most part, the party of the good, guys. No such thing can ever been said of the Republican Party. They were and always will be the party of back stabbing, Eastern Establishment scum.

Thank you! The sad thing is the vast majority of US citizens do not know this. The demos are the ones who run around saying everything is a threat to our democracy because they think we are all stupid. This film is spot on about a dictatorship. We are just about there sadly. Think I am wrong? Looked what happened during COVID.

Democracy is what happens when schools don’t have their students recite The Pledge of Allegiance every morning anymore. Kids these days don’t have it instilled in them that America’s a republic, under God.

The Pledge of Allegiance was the socialist pledge. They just added God to it. Socialism is one nation under God. Constitutional Republics are Sovereign states under God. Don’t feel bad. I was brain washed like everyone else. If we are diligent enough, the truth eventually comes to us.

Columbus Day-1892! Millions of American public school children and their parents, unaware of the full import of what they were doing, participated in one of the greatest socialist promotions ever conceived. Socialism was being launched by its intellectual backers into a truly popular movement. Yet, had the word “socialism” been uttered on that day, those same parents would have recoiled in horror.

Very good description between a Democracy and a Republic. It’s very clear, the USA has been a Democracy way more than a Republic. One thing left out though is how the USA was made of Sovereign states. Traitors Like Hamilton, Henry Clay, and Lincoln saw to it that states rights were secondary. Lincoln and Hamilton even propagated the myth that the Nation was created first and the states second. They were complete liars, and both paid for their lying with their lives. Two great books on the topic are “How Alexander Hamilton Screwed up America, and “The real Lincoln.”

The vocabulary being bandied about by the cuck right is terrible. A federation, also called a confederacy, has member States/Nations/Sovereign Entities. Do these same cuckservatives demand the right of secession and a free market of federal governments? No, they don’t. They wordsmith with Christianity and patriotism ’cause they stupid. Allegiance to incorporated legal fictions and supernatural fictions rather one’s people means one is not a true human and does not cling to true humans. It is all very pathetic.

On the sovereign States idea, the Founders were the new boss like the old boss. The Articles of Confederation (1777) (which sounds promising but was a lie) declared a ‘perpetual Union’. States cannot seceded from a perpetual union, which nullifies State sovereignty and cannot be a federation. Nevertheless, all the little states did secede to a new constitution (because unanimous consent to change the Articles of Confederation was not arranged). That constitution, the current one, says a ‘more perfect Union’. A union is a superset definition of a federation. There was no explicit mechanism for State secession, and we don’t have such a mechanism.

On a technicality, Alexander can’t be a traitor because for all practical purposes he was a Jew. Washington was a traitor as far as I can tell. He pretended that a central government bank was a difficult proposal to evaluate after the Continental was not worth a Continental. He had Hamilton and Jefferson go through a public debate for show and chose to have a central government bank, endless government credit. I think the fix was in. I think there is something devious about Freemasonry. The Founding Fathers were traitors to a large degree. It takes some serious self-education to figure it out. AKJ with another profound point. I don’t know about most of your criticisms about those early American politicians, but it sounds right to me. You’re on a roll.

The Constitution was a contract between “the several States” and “We the People”, creating the central (federal) government that was to be limited in scope and size. We have ventured so far from those facts that we now have a federal government that is a bloated corpse, just waiting for the funeral.

Functionally, the only difference I see between the two is who the ‘people’ are.

What bullshit! As a comment once said, “Pathological text worshippers.” You won’t wordsmith your way out of this. Culture, culture, culture. The tool, the tool, the tool I dare not name. Greek philosophy and the Greek Golden age were the start of Western culture. What form of government did the male Athenian citizens have? That’s right, democracy. They also had patriarchy. Christcucks and their narrative deviance from reality. Muh constitution! Muh 2nd Amendment! I hope a military boot crashes their balls soon.

They were one of the high points, but not the start. Later Greek philosophy helped bring them down. Who knows how many millenia of culture it took to build to that point?

Worshipping the Word leads to getting fooled by words.

notes to future Sparta:
1) you’re gonna have to do some farming or something, you can’t keep up your numbers without some peasants of your own people
2) try to keep your women in check
3) cut out that gay shit

We are neither a Republic or a Democracy. We are a Dictatorship ruled by the .01%. The Republic died when Lincoln declared war on the Southern States. By 1913 the Dictatorship was complete and elections were controlled, even if they really did not matter. All candidates were selected in advance and the control mechanisms to keep them in line had been ensured years before. By the time any politician made it into elected office, the .01% owned them and had enough dirt on them to end their careers if they did not tow the line..
