Consent of the governed in a democracy is done by majority vote or at least by representation that theoretically reflects the will of the majority. It is unfortunately not feasible to run a country in a fashion that makes everyone happy. You can grin and bear it, you can petition your representatives and fellow citizens to change the parts you don't like or you can move to another country that suits you.
No, no you don't understand- I don't agree with democracy- full stop. Why is that hard for you to comprehend? I know my wishes for a peaceful society wont be met in my lifetime, but I can work towards that. There's just so much b/s and violence, it's hard to know where to start.
Would you at least agree that taxation is force?
