You are. That’s a redefinition. It neuters the term of its millennia-old moral weight.

Sure, I’ll agree Israel isn’t a democracy per whatever definition you’re using. It isn’t a “real”country per others’. At that point, however, you’re just expressing a personal dislike. Nothing foundational.

It's obvious that we are talking about the modern meaning of democracy because the entire thread is about current events.

Okay then, do you have an actual point, other than quibbling about what words mean?
