When Sanders and AOC howl about Democracy being threatened, they are correct. But they ARE NOT talking about the kind of Democracy that is represented by a Republic which is a representative government ruled by a set body of laws (or used to be).

They are talking about the kind of Democracy Lenin spoke of when he said: "Democracy is indispensable to socialism." Thus, a democratic system can be used to replace the greedy capitalist system with a socialist democracy - a pure democracy. The kind of democracy that Sanders, AOC and Mamdani want is the same kind of democracy that Alexander Hamilton warned about when he said to congress in 1788; "...that a pure democracy, if it were practicable, would be the most perfect government. Experience has proved, that no position in politics is more false than this. The ancient democracies, in which the people themselves deliberated, never possessed one feature of good government. Their very character was tyranny; their figure deformity.”

Ask Muslim Mamdani and he will tell you that the Quran teaches that ANY democratic system is contrary to Islam, because it gives the power of legislation to the people or to those who represent them, and that this system is at war with Islam because legislative authority belongs to Allah alone, and it is Allah's servants on earth, the Mullahs who represent Allah, that safeguard his authority. So how can he be both a political socialist AND a devout Muslim? For that matter, how did Biden claim to be a devout Catholic yet support abortion?

We are watching what once was the Democratic Party committing political suicide by communism. Total fugazi! PROVE ME WRONG: https://bucknimz.substack.com/p/the-democratic-party-is-committing?r=tvxt0
