still

Democracy as "rule of the majority" I never supported in the first place. Exactly because I'm capable of understanding that if now the majority doesn't want to rob and kill me personally, accepting such a system means declaring that if it does, then it's right and I am wrong. Would be kinda stupid to declare that.
