Well, when I hear "respecting democracy", I think back to a guy I met in France. They just had an election, in his words "he's going to ruin this country, but eh, this is democracy". He accepted the result, because he respected the process
That's exactly what I don't want. I don't want respect in the Democratic process, because breaking norms and cheating let them hack the system. We need to cheat too
This isn't respectful of democracy, it's contemptuous of a failed system
