We already agreed "right and wrong" when we enacted certain laws. Any more complicated than that and you might as well live in a war zone. You don't get to cherry-pick laws because your definition of "right" doesn't align to what the democratic process concluded. You want to change it, go vote for it.

With a wave of a billionaire’s hand, officials are elected, the constitution undone, a dictator installed, a new political party formed. This political structure is oligarchy not democracy.

Due process, on the other hand, is a fundamental right of democratic systems. Yet this feature too is being curtailed - in favor of concentrations camps.

Billionaires have made scapegoats out of a racial minority. Basic humans rights are violated. Our democracy is in shambles thanks to this group - through their subversion of democratic processes and the undermining of democratic rights. What we are witnessing is not democracy - quite the opposite.
