Did the Greeks Predict Democracy’s Dark Side?

Turns out, the ancient Greeks had some serious warnings about democracy!

Only a small group could actually vote, and critics pointed out that democracy sometimes led to some pretty harsh choices. Makes you wonder: are we repeating history, or have we learned from their mistakes? #Religion #HistoryRepeats #DemocracyDebate
