"Gaddafi was murdered because he advocated for direct democracy and an end to "representative democracy" which is just code for rule by elites."
This is an outright lie. America has a representative democracy in the form of a Republic. It is a much better system than direct democracy, which is code for "mob rule." Democracy chose Barabbas over Jesus... a Republic chose Trump over Hillary.
Lol it was prophecy that Jesus would be rejected. No system mattered. Nice try tho.
That's only true if you have a centralized system like the Republic has set up. If things were really decentralized like they should be how people vote there wouldn't mean shit
Doesn't matter. It was prophecy what don't you get about that.
Name one federally elected politician that isn't an elite
Tim Burchett, GOP representative of Tennessee. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Senator Bill Hagerty (R-TN). There's not one but THREE for ya', and they are all folks I voted for.
Lol you think these aren't elite?
Ron Paul of Texas.
Rome was a Republic.
Key word is WAS. After Julius Cesar crossed the Rubicon against the orders of the Roman Senate, it became an Empire. But it was never a representative republic, it was a class tiered society, with a free middle class, and an enslaved bottom rung of captives from all over the Roman world.
Yep it's true. Tried to establish a gold standard and also discovered a massive reservoir of fresh water supply he was about to release for his people.
Agreed...
Gaddafi also was trying to establish a gold back African currency...
Would you say he was “a danger to our democracy”?
No
