John Adams had tracks printed that warned the colonists about the evil British plot to enslave white men.
Violence, fraud, and intimidation around voting was such a threat in early America, some think that it may be responsible for killing Edgar Allen Poe.

To those who say MAGA I ask: when were we great? To those who defend Democracy I ask: when were we a Democracy? (don’t worry, I’m going to vote for the cop over the fascist, I’m just saying).
Why is a flawed democracy preferable to other systems? Why are we convinced that democracy is the only way to run a society? It’s not like the only other possible options are autocratic dictatorships, we just refuse to entertain the thought that maybe letting idiots decide how to run a country maybe isn’t optimal
