...The very title of that is a fundamental misunderstanding of the terms 'democracy' and 'republic'
what if a majority of people, vote in a majority of representatives, that then vote to abolish the laws the majority don't want around?
A republic is a democracy,
the law only stands if its upheld by those that enforce the laws, If those in power want laws gone, a law is just a text on a paper,
even in what you'd call a "democracy" the faction that holds the power decides the rules
The majority in republics can overrule laws, thats why you have said voting system
the population is literally comprised of the individual people, in a republic of 99 people saying "yes" and 1 person saying "no" he's not gonna somehow be able to Veto through his 1/100th voting power against 99/100
The revenue is gained through taxes that are "ideally" decided is fair by the people who vote the ruling body into office,
If the voters don't like the amount of taxes they'll vote in leaders that lower it, like they did with Trump, taxes should not be taken without something happening to represent those taxes. the people decide if its legitimate through their votes
and an Ochlocracy or "mob rule" doesn't exist technically in a democracy,
If the mob wins, they'll remove the problems, and install their own rulership in which the mob no longer needs to exist as its imposed government will hold. Which isn't a mob rule at that point anymore but Tyranny of a dictatorship
If the mob loses, it hasn't prevailed
You should google the difference between
A Direct democracy, and a Representative Democracy
thats what you're trying to explain here
what else do you need prayer for

Our United States government has MULTIPLE levels of democracy baked in to it. We elect congressmen, congressmen represent the people. We elect Senators, Senators represent the states. We elect Presidents, presidents sign laws passed by Senate and Congress into law, or veto them.
Our president appoints members to our courts, approved by congress and the senate, who ideally represent us in different fashions.
The courts can rule laws passed by process to be unconstitutional, nullifying the laws.
There's also the fact that we're entitled to a trial by jury, which leads to a special type of nullification.
If someone's charged with a crime that nobody really finds immoral, they can actually push verdicts towards de facto Jury Nullification of laws.
So, don't shrug off Jury Duty, it's your chance to be a politician for a day. 😄
But yeah, so many ways for laws restricting the people to be nullified if more people who got onto juries just knew about it. There have actually been instances of people getting in trouble for educating people on Jury Nullification outside of courts, its' something most people don't even know about.
Huh. DeFranco popped up early.
no keep the normies out
reeee
Oh please. It's too quiet here anyway.
At least put up good vore. Not this mpreg garbage.
you clearly have no taste
Mmm, if it's weaponized, the cringiier the better.
mpreg is the pinnacle of western culture
Seeing those cap off an Aussie Aryan image-dump has actually given me a certain, weird appreciation for vore. o_o

hey, why don't we make some "hobby" channels, or have some channels dedicated to popular hobbies, like art/music, and gaming? People could share their own art and music, share art and music they like, and talk about hobbies and whatnot.
We could have multiple channels for different hobbies, or just one general "Hobbies" channel (which personally I think is the better option).
I feel like there are some conversations that are not happening because it feels out-of-place... though most stuff just ends up in shitposting anyway.
Worst case scenario, we have 1-2 more dead channels.
wat
No more dead channels
That's a worst case scenario, I don't think a hobby channel would die.
And if it does, then it can just be removed.
After all, this server is already 80% dead
