reminds me of my philosophy teacher arguing against someone because my teacher said that we don't live in a democracy, but a lot of people disagreed.
i still remember the look of disapointment in their face, since they had just told us the definition of democracy😭
I love people who say "we don't live in a democracy because we live in a republic." Yeah, we don't live in a republic either, bitch.
A republic has a specific definition but we absolutely do not meet.
i understand thinking you live in a democracy, but i've never heard people saying it's a republic 💀
They got it from American conservatives. Love idiot to idiot communication like this, two dumbass groups separated by an ocean using the same phrase incorrectly in different ways.
