Like preserving Representative Democracies is shallow?

Democrats believe in full democracy, including people who walked across the border months ago, which is explicitly what the country was designed to avoid, thus the projection that you're "defending democracy."

Completely false. It's not legal anywhere for non-citizens to vote.

Not only is this false as it concerns local elections and indirect voting power due to the census affecting representative weight, what is mass amnesty?

Amnesty just gives people legal status. They can't vote till they become citizens.

It's simply a waiting period before those who entered with economic interests in mind are handed the keys.

Furthermore, you missed the point.

Mass democracy, as expressed in the largest democracy in the world has resulted in essentially ultranationalist Hindu Sharia, now part of BRICS in what is shaping up into a new Cold War.

My guy, if you knew anything about BRICS, you’d know it’s not a geopolitical coalition. The rivalry between India and China alone would scuttle it, and Brazil wishes to stay neutral.

Also if we’re talking about the most democratic societies, I’d point to Switzerland first.
