America is NOT democracy first, it is liberty first. Democracy is just the most liberty-friendly method of making decisions. We can NOT use democracy to overrule liberty; that would violate the Constitution.

Doesn't that kind of belief system just put you vs. the swathes of people on the left and right who disagree with you and do view this a conflict of ideas tho?

Every single time people disagree, ever.

Denying the battle was ongoing was a very successful tactic until now. You can try but I won’t debate without a vs.

It’s the black-and-white thinking that I find false. Yes, many disagree. However, the extremes bend toward tyranny. There’s also the question of ‘who defines.’ We define. Not one side or the other, but We the People. That is by definition democracy.

Has nothing to do with definition. If you believe x, you are hated by y by default. If you are x race you are hated by y by default. Its not like door to door ethnic cleansing, but there is absolutely a conflict going on with ideas in America. Also the "we" the people is not a monolithic block but rather a series of groups that hate eachothers ideas and eachother.
