No wtf. Democracy is state that holds elections. Wtf is “owned and controlled by the people”? How are people supposed to control the government? The government is controlled by govt officials. Common people don’t control shit. How can a government be owned by people? Is government even a property that can be owned? That doesn’t make any sense.
Umm, no. Elected politicians can do whatever tf they want. There’s no legal mechanism to make them fulfill the promises they made during their campaign.
That we elected
Not to mention that elected politicians aren’t controlled by the people, most of the government positions aren’t elected.
Through democracy
Democracy is when Government is owned by people. People own government through democracy. Great argument.
If I ask a friend to water my plants, do I no longer own the plants?
If you ask government to persecute people who break the law, do you no longer own people who break the law?
How is democracy related to ownership?
A democracy is a state in which the government is owned and controlled by the people.

So not Norway, or any Western capitalist pseudo democracy.
Yes Norway, or any other country with proportional representation, but not FPTP democracies.
How else do you think the people can own the means of production?
