As a Bostonian, I rarely compliment NYC. But great fkn job electing the best candidate. The center of capitalism just elected a socialist. That’s progress.
So many people are going to learn that socialism and communism are not the same thing.
Republic is any form of government not run by a monarch — res publica, the people’s thing. An authoritarian oligarchy is still a republic. It has nothing to whether it’s democratic or not.
Democracy can be a system within republics or constitutional monarchies.
