Freedom = good.Democracy = populismpopulism = the oppression of non-majority ideas and the ruling of soccer mom hysteria sounds like a perfect society. I refuse to live in a styrofoam padded world where everything that's remotely scary is banned on sight.You're implying that's the popular opinion. That's why rival parties and views exist to influence popular opinion.

I refuse to live in a styrofoam padded world where everything that's remotely scary is banned on sight.You're implying that's the popular opinion. That's why rival parties and views exist to influence popular opinion.True rival parties and ideas are quickly demonized via propaganda, then suppressed via policy.The propaganda machine is so efficient you don't even realize it's propaganda. There is an illusion of freedom, and illusion of choice. But it isn't real. You are allowed to choose from a very narrow ideological spectrum, and risk ostracization or criminality if you go beyond that spectrum.
