The idea that democracy is a great idea for some countries or cultures but not for others is fundamentally incoherent and abhorrent, and can only come from a place of elitism and racism.
No this is wrong . Democracy can only work in a culture that values individual rights , otherwise democracy simply cannot work .
There's some things that shouldn't be on the ballot. Most people in a country wanting it is not a good reason to put all the infidels in jail, ban women from working or school, or kill gay people.
