The move away from democracy
Is speeding up at a horrendous pace. The US is now on the brink of losing its own democracy.

I'm sure that everything will fall back into place. Right before FDR became president one had the removal of The Bonus Army

@Reason10 stop trolling us. The radical right is driving this country to fascism and the guardrails that used to exist to prevent that are gone. We are the frig in warm water about to be boiled! You and your radical friends will eventually end up like your idols after WWII.

@samueltyler2 The Freedom House was created in 1941 with the sole purpose of promoting democracy in the world.
Democracy shouldn't have any party alliance. All parties should want democracy.
The fact that this guy is insisting that the site is all left leaning people and agendas seema to further prove that the right has no interest in democracy.

@BlueGreenGrey I think they are just settling in hopes that things will calm down and trump will take the bullseye off them. He is more than happy to censor those who don't put him in the light he thinks he deserves. That can be a death knell to many of these companies.

To bring you up to speed with the history and civics your blue state public school apparently failed to educate you on, the United States has made incredible strides in maintaining democracy over the past six years.
Roe V. Wade (a law NOT passed by any "Democracy") was overturned when the Supreme Court decided to actually READ the Constitution and the matter was sent to the states, where DEMOCRACY made the decision. Some states outlawed it, with few exceptions; some states liberalized it.
PURE DEMOCRACY in the United States either saved babies' lives or put them in greater danger.
Oh, and the President Of the United States beat the KKKbitch in the POPULAR VOTE as well as the Electoral College.
If anything, Democracy (a word that does NOT appear in any of the founding documents) is alive and well in the United States.
