I agreed. I believe, They (cabal) has been in charge since the beginning (ancient) times all over the world. We think that we “vote” but it is not real. God is tired of them because they killed Jesus and they continue doing bad things to people. Happy Easter to all.
The Athenian democracy was more like an oligarchy. The vast majority of the population of Athens were not citizens. There was only like 10,000 citizens of Athens and it was based on how much land you owned or something like that. So it was like 10,000 of the wealthiest citizens of the city-state who actually got a vote in how things were done. It's actually pretty similar to how the government is run in America at the moment. When the elites talk about our democracy, they mean it literally. They don't see us commoners as citizens.
Came here to say this. The founders LOATHED democracy. James Madison accurately referred to its danger as the "tyranny of the majority."
Yes, you are correct. My slip. Our Founders never intended that.
US of Americas form of government is not a direct democracy, but it's means of carrying out the process of a Republic is democratic.
As long as we are clarifying things I think its important to point out these distinctions, America is a Republic that uses democracy.

Correct! Also, the democracy in Athens did not last long.
