apparently you can just label 20% of your population "fascist" to cancel and "deplatform" them and at the same time can consider your "democracy" a full success.

fast forward some years the "fascists" - anyone disagreeing with the way the "current thing" is handled - are at >40% and you have no idea how that could happen because you talked big about "nip them in the bud!!1", larping as red brigade or something. you of course ignored the problems of your society & poured oil into fires with fascistoid rhetorics yourself. not noticing that tightening the clamps just puts things nearer to their breaking point.

@bonifartius @bonifartius
I would like to believe it's becoming ever more blatantly obvious that democracy itself is a failed system with no redeeming qualities akin communism

"By the people, for the people" except the 49% that completely disagrees with you?

@bonifartius @Elfie @bonifartius censorship happened under, i.e., monarchy as well though. Worse even, since the punishments were, IIRC, far more severe.
