Wow, did you even read what I wrote, at all? Seriously, I said the exactly opposite of what you are criticizing me for.
Consensual Government, personal freedoms and individual rights are not American ideals, but DEMOCRATIC IDEALS embraced by the Americans, as well as many other countries.
Democracy is originally a western ideal, whether someone likes it or not, wheatear this is a politically correct historical fact or not.
It is not, fortunately, restricted to the culture from which it originated. If it were, the Americans could never have embraced it.
A country can have a theocratic government, a fundamentalist regime, a totalitarian dictatorship or a medieval monarchy. I didn’t say they couldn’t. I didn’t even say they shouldn’t.
The self-evident truth I stated is that for a country to be a democracy is must be truly embrace the ideals of democracy. Democracy isn’t just the rule of the majority – such government is the dictatorship of the majority.
It’s not about anyone’s personal view of democracy. A country where the majority can choose to expropriate, expel or kill the minority is not a democracy. It’s not even a defendable position, that kind of atrocity is the very thing Democracy is supposed to prevent.
It’s also obvious that when someone puts “Democratic” in the name of a totalitarian dictatorship it does not magically change its nature. It doesn’t work that way.
Now before you call anyone else’s statement stupid (daft = stupid according to dictionary.com), I suggest you do some things:
1. Read what was actually said
2. Learn the basics about the subject being discussed. Read some Bobbio or Rousseau - don't worry, they aren't American authors
3. Try to at least counter some of the points, instead of generically saying “you are wrong because I want to”
