The US is a republic not a democracy.

@hippyjoe1955 That old chestnut.

@QuixoticSoul So you don't know the difference. Why am I not surprised?

@hippyjoe1955 Yeah that’s it - I don’t know the difference, and you’re not being critically obtuse or anything 🙄

@WindOfAdolf Everyone knows that US isn’t a direct democracy, dumbass - which is why it’s so silly when people get into that pose and bring out this little factoid.

@QuixoticSoul So when there is a post up deriding the US democracy one's response should be?????

@WindOfAdolf You're going full retard again. It's an accepted shorthand. When we talk about the great democracies of the world, or making the world safe for democracy, or the oodles of other times we refer to this central tenet of American life - nobody is talking about Pericles.

Getting into the "akshually US is a republic" pose is just a derailing tactic.

@hippyjoe1955 One can start to discuss the issues at hand - like whether we're becoming a plutocracy or not.

But Canadians should probably just keep quiet and slurp on their maple syrup.

@QuixoticSoul The biggest of which is the fact that the poster doesn't know that the US is not a democracy. Sheesh you are slow on the uptake.
QuixoticSoul · 41-45, M
@hippyjoe1955 Everybody knows that US is a [i]representative[/i] democracy. That's still a type of democracy. You're being an idiot joe.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@QuixoticSoul Except obviously the poster or can you not read?

@Pherick Nah, just killing time before work. None of these idiots are going to learn anything. I mean, one's a nazi. And the other's a Canadian.

@WindOfAdolf You and I live in very different worlds. You live in a scary fantasy world where the "white man" is under attack and forces are trying to destroy them.

I live in the real world where over human history cultures and empires have risen and fallen. White people aren't going extinct, the world is changing. We are still human.

@Pherick Dread spectre of mayocide is upon us all.

The juice did this.
Pherick · 41-45, M
@WindOfAdolf "White countries" in the world only make up about 20%, Africa and Asia makeup 75% and the rest in with South America and Island nations.

So 75% of the world's population is from Asia and Africa, of course, "white" people are going to be in a minority, we inhabit very small pieces of the worlds land.

I really don't care how much of the human race is white or black or any other color. We are all one species and going forward thats all that matters.

@Pherick I really don't think you're taking the juice menace seriously enough Pherick. It's a big deal.

@WindOfAdolf [quote]our countries[/quote]

You mean like America? The country we stole from Natives and then used Black slaves to make prosperous?

Its not white guilt to see history and acknowledge what we did. We aren't inviting anyone into this country "en masse" We allow some immigration and refugees in every year, as it should be. We are a nation of immigrants, it gives us the infusions we need.

@QuixoticSoul I am somewhat flippant of the juice menance ;)
