i will remind everyone that the one instance of american authoritarianism — the one party terror state that was the jim crow south — was built on minority rule and a commitment to “liberty” over democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

majority votes for representatives followed by majorities of representatives making law and policy isn’t “pure democracy” and it is pure sophistry to conflate the losing side of a majoritarian legislative vote with a demographic minority whose rights have been violated — PolitiTweet.org
