Define western democracy.

Are you lumping the Constitutional Republic in with that?

Are you indicating the values in the founding documents of the countries in question, or how they operate now and at some theoretical point in the future?

At what point does oppression move from acceptable to unacceptable?

What about the consent of the governed?

Is forced “democracy” intrinsically different from a totalitarian state?
