    Lmfao. Jim Crow was a successful democracy? Literal slave ownership before that? Invasion of Iraq was successful Democracy? Bombing of Vietnam?

      I agree. There is always something dark in most histories of anything and everything. The good old usa did a lot of dirty shit under the guise of their 250 year old successful democracy. Don’t confuse goodness and justice with democracy.
