So true. I despise Democracy. It is nothing but a mob of easily swayed sheep taking away the rights of the sane people. All too often by promising the sheep "free shit". Or by blaming all grievances on "the rich" and promising to redistribute their wealth until the rich flee and everyone becomes poorer due to no more productive rich people around, sigh.
This is why the left loves to tout democracy as the best.
Despite the modern-day popular belief that democracy somehow is viewed as the best form of governance, the Greek philosopher Aristotle despised democracy and ranked it just one notch ahead of anarchy. Thomas Jefferson quoted “A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine”.
