    You keep saying that I can’t expect non-western countries to have “western” democracy. It sounds like you’re saying only white people can have democracy.

    You have to be a troll. Western democracy is democracy in the loosest sense to keep acting like it’s the only valid form of democracy is ridiculous. I hope you eventually grow up.

      Accusing me of being a troll while excluding the next sentence.

        While there are plenty of non-western liberal democracies, I agree with the criticism that they aren’t that democratic.

        This one? “Oh other forms of democracy exist but they’re not real democracy”.

          It is trollish to interpret that as me claiming the only valid for of democracy is western democracy.
