Slighting or shifting the conversation to include statements made in a political setting is not really the gotcha moment you may think it is.
I realize in today's world the definition of such things like what a woman is or what an assault rifle is can change as fast as the algorithm can change it, which is pretty fast. I'm not trying to take away from anything you stated above, however, where in the Constitution of the United States is the word Democracy?
The term Democratic Republic may be found within the anals of History, but that term doesn't simply mean Democracy Republic.
I stand firm in my statement, as backed by many forefathers of the Country itself. For example.... In 1787, Benjamin Franklin said "A republic, if you can keep it" when asked about the country's new government. Benjamin did not say "a Democracy". Now if you postulate that I'm wrong I recommend taking that up with the National Archives.
By the way, it's the omission of the term Republic I'm most curious about. Citing democracy alone is truly the irritating part. I understand what your saying, I just don't agree that those that use the term actually know anything about what you wrote, instead their repeating shit like a damn parrot.
Moving on ....
