`New York is frequently portrayed as one of the most solidly Democratic, "blue" states in the country, along with places like California and Massachusetts. `

I can see why for schools.

So i think AOC has just demonstrated her complete lack of knowledge on the American Political System https://twitter.com/AOC/status/1166502815717568512

both parties serve lobbyists, so she's right for the wrong reasons

I am talking about this part "Republicans are now arguing that the US isn’t (& shouldn’t be) a democracy."

well how often do you see chucklefucks on here say "the US isn't a democracy, its a republic"

Well there is an important difference

this is one argument she actually hasn't made up out of whole cloth

The Founders knew that a Pure Democracy was not a good idea

she's misinterpreting it in context, granted, but still

>Has been a Republic since its founding

Please tell me the Americans aren't stupid enough to fall for this?

No, what they fall for is treating both terms as mutually exclusive, or even contradictory

fucking embarrassing, if I'm honest

Its one reason I can't read more than a few pages of *'Unfreedom Of The Press'*

To be fair violet

everyone calls it a "democracy"

"our great democracy" etc

but yeah. representatives are necessary in a country with 300 million people and less informed masses

Mark Levin is so fucking hyper-partisan he uses 'republic' as a go-to synonym for literally every noun regarding the nation-state

There is an important difference though, They don't have the same meaning

no, they don't have the same meaning, but try having a republic without voting.

A Pure Democracy is a Dictatorship of the mob
