you don’t agree with the quote ?

I don’t agree with the quote.

The average voter expects everything to be done and given to them, thus are experts at moaning, moaning, and more moaning.

you make no sense lol

you claim you don’t agree yet you literally agreed with the last statement

Oh wait…maybe I misunderstand the quote lol

Or maybe not?

Thing is, I am pro democracy but against the way it is implemented, from the top all the way down to the average voter.

As Gandhi on being asked what he thought of Western civilization (ie democracy) he once replied: β€œIt would be a good idea.”

β€œIn Gandhi's hierarchy, he placed white people at the top and black people at the bottom. He asserted that Indians were secondary on the hierarchy. This division of racial identity on a hierarchical scale highlights Gandhi's racist beliefs that should not be ignored from the narrative.”

I think in that respect Churchill was just as bad if not a lot worse, but that’s another story.

I was merely referring to democracy being a good idea if it was implemented according to its original purpose.

I agree with the quote. And I love Churchill the writer.

He was however an authoritarian drunk with power, and also a drunk authoritarian with power.

I agree with the statement just was curious if you agreed with the quote 🀝
