Your post makes me sick... Why a socialist or anarch capitalism flag when you talk about democracy? And no US people are not ignorants, literally everyone is. Everyone gets their news from the media and are all somewhat biased to believe one is bad and one is good. In my opinion, just leave it be. But what I have to say about socialism is that history is written by the victors but yet people hate the right so much that they forgot what the radical socialists has done to the east, and as a heritage from the east, I tell ya, the left is not less poisonous than the right, especially when it always calls with slogans and political correctness
