Subjectively, democracy is honorable. It gives everyone a voice.

Objectively, democracy has proven to be the most durable and effective system for modern government.

BRUH White isn’t a race. Caucasian is a race. And also, most of the United States citizens come from different countries than each other. Whether you like it or not, white men are not the only men who can vote. If they were, this nation would be further down the crapper than it is now.

This is how Winston Churchill put it.

And what did Churchill & friends do to your beloved fascist empire in Germany?

Proof of concept.

Of course, Winston Churchill also said this. So he had nuanced views on this subject.

Unlike your views on virtually anything.

Churchill’s wit is lost on fools like you. I ask again, what did he do to your precious fascist empire?

You hate democracy, but you like seem to like democracy if only white men can vote.

Sounds like you just hate democracy.

Well, you're actually right -- as far as it goes -- that the Founding Fathers supported a white ethnostate: the enslavement of blacks, race-based malapportionment of votes to slaveholding states (the "3/5 compromise"), voting rights only for property-owners, the disenfranchisement of women, the subjugation of Native Americans, etc. etc.

These are the specific things the Founders ought to be shamed for, not praised. These flaws in our democracy have since been ironed out for the most part, through a whole lot of weeping and gnashing of teeth, and these days just about everyone recognizes women and minority rights. Except you and your Neo-Nazi ilk.

George Washington's non-partisan presidency was an inspiring example, but every single Administration after him (even his immediate successors) has been unable to fulfill his vision. It takes a leader of unusually commanding stature to unite a whole country.

That's no reason to jettison democracy in the meantime.
