Democracy is inherently flawed. The only interests it is capable of serving is special interests. The voting public are rationally ignorant because they simply don't have time to learn about all issues or candidates. For all intents and purposes, everyone is a single issue voter.
A politician can win by finding an issue 3% of voters care about, robbing everyone else to pay for their issue, and repeating 17 times for 51% of the vote. He can rob the remaining 49% as much as he pleases. The pool of productive people will get smaller and need to be squeezed harder, while the system runs out of money for the base and starts compensating with privileges instead, such as not being prosecuted. Anarchotyranny is the natural result of democracy.
That's what happens when people in a democracy are not unified in shared ideals of universal human rights and equality under the law. It's what happens when selfish and inherently toxic groups seek to use the ballot box as a weapon to settle political disputes and censor information and rob everyone they hate no matter the cost.
The Constitution was supposed to guarantee the rights of Americans. But after how hard the enemies have fought to destroy it... I wouldn't shed any tears if the constitution stopped protecting them and humanity stopped enabling them.

This is why helicopters were invented.
