Democracy is not just a system — it is a shield.
A shield against those who love power more than they love humanity.
Against those who build thrones out of silence, prisons out of fear, and kingdoms out of obedience.

In a non-democratic land, a single greedy individual can hold millions hostage —
not with chains, but with laws, media, police, and propaganda.
But in a true democracy, that kind of captivity becomes impossible,
because the people are not spectators — they are the owners of the system.

Democracy gives the tongue back to the muted,
the vote back to the ignored,
and the dignity back to the oppressed.

It ensures that power becomes temporary, not inherited.
Accountable, not sacred.
Questionable, not untouchable.

It prevents the rise of the “one man above the nation” myth —
the myth that has destroyed civilizations, started wars, erased identities.

When democracy is alive, the people can remove any leader
before the leader removes their rights.
That is the true beauty of this system:
it does not worship rulers — it protects citizens.

Democracy doesn’t let a wolf wear silk and call himself a shepherd.
