Thanks for explaining. I get that. Seems we're moving away from democracy and freedom these days. That's hard to tackle. And there's a multitude of reasons and dynamics at play. I've also learned at school we usually have reforms or revolution available. Plus a few successful forms of nonviolent resistance. Or civil war, war and a restart, continued oppression... We'll see. I hope for the best. But in my opinion freedom is a constant fight, even in "free" countries, it's not granted automatically or indefinitely.
