Someone said “democracy often ends in oligarchy”

Um 😐

Isn’t that kind of where we are at now?

The “elites” “the deep state”

There are some critical differences between democracies and oligarchies. In democracies, all people have an equal say in the government, regardless of how much money they have. In oligarchies, only people with a lot of money have a voice in the government. This means that the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer.

Democracies also tend to be more stable than oligarchies. In democracies, there is always a chance that the people can vote out the people in power if they don’t like them. In oligarchies, the people in power usually stay in control for a long time because they have a lot of money and can buy votes.

Overall, it is clear that democracies are better than oligarchies. Democracies are fairer, more stable, and give all people a voice

I was today years old when I discovered america is an oligarchy disguised as a democracy similar to how socialist Venezuela identifies as a democracy

it's the oligarchs that are always complaining that the Constitution is outdated, which is why they always attack the individual liberties outlined in it...

They also hate freedom of religion, as they hate anything beyond their purview of control
@wildbill83 it looks like you’re calling Thomas Jefferson an oligarch.
