    I respect democratic decisions and find any form of terrorism against those decisions and thus the democratic system itself unjustifyable.

    [About Nazi Germany:] would it be morally justified to fight against the government with terrorism if you are unable to leave?

    The Nazis didn’t adhere to the democratic principles themselves, they were very much antidemocratic and were forcibly trying to change the system against the will of the majority (this I find unjustifyable). They were themselves a kind of minority

    To answer your question, I think I would be justified to fight that (with force), HOWEVER, it is NOT justified that I push my own minority-opinion (e.g. by establishing a dictstorship with me as the dictator).

      And when the government does not obey the will of the people, is it still a democracy?

      Majority in U.S. Still Say Gov’t Should Ensure Healthcare

      Compared to economic elites, average voters have a low to nonexistent influence on public policies. “Not only do ordinary citizens not have uniquely substantial power over policy decisions, they have little or no independent influence on policy at all.

      The time is quickly approaching when choices will have to be made. Be aware. Be informed.
