I'm ok with "threats to democracy", because democracy is a ridiculously stupid notion, same as the related forms of mob-rule such as "socialism" and "communism" and "fascism". All of those, "democracy" included are entirely geared towards the elimination of individual freedom and individual initiative in favor of mob rule and the hive mentality.
If individuals are not free, then by definition a society cannot be free, as societies are made up entirely of individuals.
So, "democracy" can kiss my ass. it can get in line right behind Socialism, Communism, and Fascism - they are all just varying degrees of the same damned thing, mob rule and suppression of freedom.
I'm much more in favor of what the Founding Fathers termed "a Republican form of government" - you know, the kind they gave us, the kind we had before the US started lurching towards communism like a Frankenstein's Monster juggernaut, back before all this "democracy" nonsense started getting bandied about to grease the wheels for Mob Rule in America.
