You have answered your own question Alon - I dare say no.

I happen to agree with you.

No, probably not.

In The Republic, Plato argues that democracy inevitably collapses into dictatorship (tyranny) due to excessive liberty and a lack of expert leadership. He believed that valuing all opinions equally leads to chaos, allowing a demagogue to rise by promising order, eventually subverting freedoms and becoming a tyrant.

Sorry, but your democracy has officially reached its best-before date.

Isn't it odd that all the pro Republicans in Australia are from the Woke Left ?
I wonder who they'd choose as POA ? Git 1 to put up his hand would be Burka I'd imagine followed by Wrong & Bowed !
