As long as there are people in this world, it is safe for democracy. We just have to step up.

It wasn't democracy that went wrong, it was unfettered Corporate & mega rich influence that has gone wrong.

It wasn't democracy spreading, it was capitalism that was spreading. The countries only donned the cloak of democracy so the rich guys could mix in polite company.

It's not the nature of democracy that is the problem. It is the nature of authoritarianism. Democracy encourages competition, but with rules. Authoritarianism encourages waging win-at-all-cost war where rules are warped to fit the narrative of the authority.

At least in America, one of the problems is only rich people can afford to run for office. So power isn't with the people, it's with the dollar.

Yes, something is wrong with "Democracy". It is that capitalists have managed to buy legislation that regular people would never support. "Citizens United" is not about citizens being united. It is about unlimiting corporate donations to politicians. This is not democratic.

Just look at Spain, using Military forces to stop a referendum, having political prisioners (with the approval of the EU), or pursuing and difficulting the recently elected Catalan President to become effectively President. No more democracy in the UE unfortunatelly

The question is overly simplistic. We don't have a democracy, its a constitutional federal republic. Political and economic systems are interdependent. We should be asking if its time to give capitalism the boot.
