Excellent piece on the dangers of Democracy worship. Currently, there are too many people who treat Democracy as a mystical or even magical concept that should be seen as the pinnacle of perfection. The word does not even appear in the U.S. Constitution one time.

Thank you, and, yes, it is viewed in the Marxian lens as a magical (Hermetic) item.

While I am assured that you are knowledgeable on the subject, the book, "Unbridled Democracy" is worth a look. The Kindle version is not expensive, and the author has a series of books on other subjects from a philosophical point of view.
