Democracy is defined as all the people themselves have the power. That the people control government.

This is how democracy is sold to people to make them believe this word represents how people have power over their government.

Democracy, is not rule of all people, is not power of all people. Democracy is the power of the people called government.

The people, is assumed to be all people, so you think democracy means all people are ruling, all people have the power.

Not the government subset group power, or any other subset group like aristocrats (aristocracy) or corporations (corporatocracy).

People believe in the idea of democracy to such an extent, they obey and follow the rules that exist in the Society because those rules are allegedly good and moral.

This is the strength of democracy. People believe, have faith, trust and loyalty in Society, in the idea of democracy, and idea of  ‘the people’.

After all, we are a person, of the people. We think we are the democracy and we are the rulers.

The strength of democracy is in the belief. A belief in a way to live life that produces a single order for all to follow, but a false order, a wrong order.

The belief in the rule of the law, the procedures, protocols, rules and orders, creates an image/aura of legitimacy to be obeyed under an illusion of good.

People accept that decisions made by people in one area of Society determine what can and can not take place in all of Society. Yet, think it is the rule of all by all.

People believe in, have faith, trust and loyalty in institutions as being better than the people who created or run them, and are willing to give that institution more power to protect them and the minority or marginalized classes.

Individual freedom, conscience and values of morality are secondary to the collective centralized laws and orders created by other individuals to control the group collective.
