Democracy is about majority rule.
Supporting minorities is not.
Where did you think this was going?

[velocecarriola]

Democracy, when regardless of who the people elect to govern the same ruling elite, corporations and families run the country. Ultimately "democracy" is only theatre.

Incredible how this scent of youth addict says this.

Even commenting on this is a bit like a passenger on the Titanic arguing over where to get the best view of the iceberg! This 'leader' probably couldn't open a door without detailed instructions and a demo!

Funny how ALL the comments on this feed are negative for a left wing outlet. If ScrewTube wasnt throttling the downvotes it would be 10 negatives to one positive.

BIDEN SHOULD HEAR YOURSELF SAYING THAT IN FRONT OF THE MIRROR!!!

Today is "Memorial day " not "Tulsa Race Massacre Remembrance day. "

Has anyone got this with subtitles in Mandarin?

After the last election I don't see the word democracy and Biden sitting well together.

Unbelievable, absolute unbelievable hypocrisy

[leeclarke]

Democracy has nothing to do with rule, ruling or rulers. Its not the rule of the people. Democracy is not a collective it’s an individuals right to choose. To choose who and what governs their nation and or states therein. Democracy isn’t telling people what to do, what to think, what to feel and what to say. That’s rule. Democracy is freedom of all the afore mentioned.

Yep, from the the radical Left and this geriatric.

Replace "Democracy" with "Hegemony" and it works perfect for US government.

We are a republic but I guess he forgot that just like he forgets foundational principals... Life, liberty and all that... You know the saying...🤦🏼‍♀️🙄

"We, the people, stand up for the military veteran heroes of America today."
Did you forget what day it is, Joe???

“Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.”
