If we had a leader like Abraham Lincoln there might be some hope, he would not have tolerated the feminists. But where are the strong leaders we need today?

But I'm not sure what you mean by genuine democracy, if if is not

Lincoln nailed it with "Government of the people, by the people and for the people", meaning "an informed populace formulates all policy ad the public service implements it". No middle man. No parliament, politicians, elections, and no corruption. Just local, regional and national consensus. When Lincoln was assassinated, the Populist movement was formed to install genuine democracy. They, too, failed. The plutocrats overwhelmed them, just as they do today. There will be no new democrcies until the plutocrats are all dead.
