[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to thank god that we weren’t like other countries, that we wouldn’t have a group of jackboots show up and close our stores or universities, or ransack our homes, because of our democracy.  But the governor of Florida just replaced everyone on staff and the curriculum with what he wanted.  Came in and took it over, wiped everything out, replaced it all, because of his own political agenda.

Decades from now, students are going to be studying this era as a time when our country truly did hang on the precipice of losing our democracy.  It really is frightening that so many people are rejoicing in this just because it matches their own personal views.  But it doesn’t match half or more of the country’s views, which is why we have free speech in the constitution.  This is supposed to be protected.  I would feel the same way if it were in reverse and a liberal governor fired all of a college’s staff and completely took over because it was too conservative.  It really is frightening what’s happening in parts of our country.

Hilarious. "Losing democracy" is posted by the group that wants to do a whole bunch of things convenient to their brand of "democracy" like:

Get rid of the filibuster when it's no longer convenient to them.
Pack the Supreme Court with more justices to get the decisions they want.
Add more states to overthrow tbe balance of power.
Make whole subjects "settled science" so they can longer be debated:
Change the system thru silicon valley censoring so discussion is killed off.
Abolish the electoral college to tip the scales in favor of population centers (that everyone is fleeing BTW).
Deny the minority party in the house the right to select its own committee members.

Enough with your "democracy" lectures.[/quote]
