About This Quote

Democracy is not perfect. It is an imperfection that the majority choose to support. Democracy means that all of us should have equal rights and opportunities to be able to lead our own lives. The majority rules, but it is not perfect, as we can see from the recent elections in the United States.

The majority chooses the way they will engage with democracy, and this can sometimes lead to mistakes and unfairness. For instance, in the recent US presidential election, the majority chose a man who has been accused of sexual assault, and has several other serious moral issues that he should have been prevented from obtaining the highest office in the land by members of his own party. The electoral system can never be perfect and it should never be considered as such because we should all be free to choose how we want to live our lives.
