  • #D76 (demiurge to Democratic-Republican) ft. Lindsay Hicks

    I read from demiurge to Democratic-Republican to Lindsay Hicks.

     

     

    What's a demiurge?

    https://gods-and-demons.fandom.com/wiki/Demiurge

     

     

    Lindsay mentioned The Good Liars which you can find here (and probably other places):

    The Electoral College is a process, not a place.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College

    https://www.archives.gov/electoral-college

     

     

    "Democratic centralism" is mainly associated with Leninism:

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_centralism

     

     

    The definition of the Democratic-Republican party in the dictionary was not able to give you all the info so go here to get a LOT more. 

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic-Republican_Party

     

     

    The word of the episode is "democracy".

    For the people, by the people, on the people, with the people, etc.
