    That’s not supposed to be how it works in countries that at least purport to be free. At the very least, we can at least be frustrated at the false advertising.

    You don’t have to be paying much attention to know India is not one of those places.

      Well they do claim to be a free, democratic nation. “Claim” is doing an awful lot of work in that sentence, but it is accurate.

        Countries claim things all the time. If you take a look at “official” names of countries you will soon understand self claims are meaningless.

        I understand you already know this.
