I know a guy who lives in Florida. He genuinely loves America and talks about democracy. He also supports the governor there who is banning books, banning healthcare choices, banning private businesses from even hosting gatherings for people that look a certain way.
Democracy is indeed in a precarious position. But sadly many people who seem to talk about it are actively voting for people who oppose it.

It’s a lot easier to support democracy in theory than in practice. Are you really going to support democracy over a little bit of gerrymandering if it means your party wins? If your party is anti-democratic, are you really going to vote for the other guys?
