One of the most toxic elements of democracy brain is viewing 51% as victory and 49% as defeat.

    It happened in the UK with the Brexit vote.

    Granted we technically have a two party system here but the Brexit vote wasn’t a vote for either of them but for whether our country left the EU. Then when 51.89% voted leave, our idiot government called that democracy and we left.
