>armed men
But what if the people vote to ban guns?

>>2940676
you can choose to vote for whomever you want.
and in which fucking democratic country are you forced by armed men to vote?
the analogy really does not line up in any way. the correct analogy would be:
>you can choose which cliff you want to jump off, or if you want to jump off at all

You don't automatically become head of state if your party wins a plurality in an election in a parliamentary system. The Chancellorship is an appointed position.

And the elections weren't democratic, the brown shirts had been terrorizing the political opposition constantly.
