When MAGAloons assert "we're not a democracy ...", they're playing with the semantics, and rebranding, but that's not all they're doing.

By saying, "We're not a democracy", they're normalizing a broad rejection of democracy, in order to condition people to accept authoritarian rule, and to rationalize it:
"It's good to have the stability of strong leadership. What did democracy get us, anyway? Woke-ism, and DEI, and Pronouns, and Welfare Queens, and BLM, and Sissy Boys and and and. Good riddance to all that."
