Gregory's Server@cat_static @mo The communists got down & violent with the fascists in pre Nazi Germany, & democracy failed because it was so new & not up to the serious challenges of post WWI. Democracy has worked relatively well in the UK (but debatably in recent years) because it evolved so slowly. Australia & NZ followed suit. The focus on individual rights &freedom in the USA has undermined the notion of citizen responsibilities. A passive citizenry allows extremists of all sorts to rise up.

 @cat_static @mo Yes, Iโm hoping Republican judges & juries will take their responsibilities seriously. Rightly or wrongly, the US sets the tone for much of the western world. Trump & his ilk havenโt done any of us any favours. |
@Susan60 @mo ๐ฏ perfect breakdown. I'd only add that the U.S. battles are being fought in the courts; if people pay attention they'll see how we win the war. https://www.democracydocket.com/
