Tulsi Gabbard - "Warmongers argue that we must protect Ukraine because it is a “democracy.” But they’re lying. Ukraine isn't actually a democracy. To hold onto power, Ukraine's president shut down the 3 TV stations that criticized him, and imprisoned…"

“Spreading democracy” is a weapon used by the West to perpetuate bloodless coups in order to install regimes that are cooperative in their motives. There is even a “wrong kind of democracy”, such as the one we saw in the Ukraine before 2014, when the truly democratically elected leader was ousted in a CIA/NATO led coup, which is then painted as a glorious and romantic revolution by the propaganda media mouthpieces. The only way to stop it is through violent action, such as we see Russia undertaking currently. It’s quite clever really. It leaves competitors no other option than to sit on their hands and allow it to happen or stop it, which levies outcries of “evil invading forces using violence to achieve their ends”.

They likely are a democracy. Democracy isn't desirable. For these very reasons. For all the reasons white men in America have lost control of our very own country. It's why all European countries are losing/have lost control of their countries too.

The US was created as a constitutional democratic republic. It is not a democracy.

I had a liberal friend argue we are a democracy, that is until I had her repeat the pledge of allegiance.

I recited with her the one part to emphasize her own words .. and to the republic, for which it stands....

Stopped her in her tracks and it made it very clear why the pledge was deemed "racist" and why the kids shouldn't have to say it anymore according to the libs.

Democracy = people casting votes. I guess...

So yeah I'd say Ukraine is a democracy. Much like the US is a democracy but with fraud and media manipulation. Jan 6th prosecutions vs BLM prosecutions are clear examples of imprisoning political opposition.

So how exactly are we different than Ukraine? Neither system is worth defending at this point.

Constitutionally we are very different. But we don't follow the constitution and they've rigged system to become a democracy and ignore the republic part. That's the entire purpose of civil rights, women's suffrage, and even all men get to vote. Key requirements of upholding the republic is that only those with skin in the game (land owning white males of morale character) get to vote for representation. People seem to have forgotten the cascading effect this very simple concept has on everything around us.

Never mind the actual 13th amendment which prohibits lawyers and royalty from participating in government in any way. Which basically means 90% of all of our current government wouldn't be there today. Almost all POTUS are royalty. Almost all representatives are lawyers.

Fundamentally and constitutionally we are very different. The massive corruption has made us the same. Which is why your "same" comparison is very apt.

The massive corruption has made us the same.

And the SCOTUS failing to do it job since its inception.

Sadly our country is in a sorry state.

Democracy is 2 wolves telling the sheep what's for dinner.

A republic ..especially one set up the way the framers did...where your IMMEDIATE government is supposed to have the most impact, is far superior.

it's not a democracy if the votes don't even count....

how can you possibly think this jew was genuinely elected? he's an actor who ran with a brand new political party created by a TV SHOW and won the election by running a 4 month 'virtual campaign' without doing anything in real life. It makes Biden in comparison look like the most authentic democratically elected leader in history. It's the most obvious example you will ever see of a fraudulent democracy.
