A wonderful article. Thank you - hadn't heard about this except through you.

*Democracy is not synonymous with liberty or sovereignty. A major part of the reason why this type of thing is even happening in Germany, is due the misunderstanding that democracy is a magical word that means something magical it does not mean. To paraphrase: "In theory the people decide, but the internationalist (a supra nationalist state, in fact - nationalist to its core) is behind it all."

Political prisoners may be be banned from travel and other dangerous undertakings of those who express wrong thoughts and opinions and ideas, and this may be perfectly in-line with the "democracy" of a particular place. A majority of people who do not belong to a nation, as well as many of those who do belong to a nation, given voting privileges, can vote in people who like Bolshevism, promote Bolshevism, and enact Bolshevism. That's democracy.

When we speak of our rights being removed by force or threat of force, we should speak of removal of liberty and sovereignty. It is not necessarily that democracy is failing. It's doing what democracy does - which is reflect those who make up the democratic body.
