psst. don't think you truly understand democracy and its origins yet.
It's unbecoming of a forum host to bait a newbie here to come up with a definition of true democracy only for you to unleash your usual nonsense him. While no one can come up with a definition of true democracy, we all know what false democracy is though. It's what is being practised by the PAP in S'pore. In simple layman terms, it's pretending to listen and consult the people but without any intention whatsoever to do otherwise from the PAP had planned to do all along.
It's sometimes best to learn something by knowing what the exact opposite is. So to learn what true democracy is, look at the way S'pore is being governed and think of the exact opposite and that's your answer.

Demos = People. Kratos = Power. Democracy = Power to the people.

Doesn't matter if it's a lynch mob or an autocracy; all I'm concerned with is the maximisation of my own power.

your conscience is honorable. nobody else is willing to give up absolute power voluntarily unless it's taken by brute force. just ask anyone here to give up their rep power. :p
