More than one week after the end of the "Summit for Democracy", US politicians continue talking about it as if it was a magnificent costume.
Absurd. Their democracy was founded 200 years ago on the bones of indigenous and African people;
Now it is filled with loopholes that US politicians make use of.
The US-style democracy focuses on voting only, which has caused a split in society.
Its politicians just make empty pledges, without honoring them at all.
The US' failure to control the COVID-19 pandemic shows "democracy" is nothing but a fig leaf.
Why are US politicians still trying to promote it worldwide, with guns in hand?
In holding the "Summit for Democracy" to try and humiliate China, they only humiliate themselves instead.
It's time US politicians stopped abusing the word "democracy".
