Steve and me are entities. Democracy is an ideology.

You cannot support an ideology while also supporting its polar opposite.

Yes, I can, if I choose to be a hypocrite. I can push for both.

Picture a seesaw. Polar opposite sides. Raising one lowers the other. We can support both sides with bricks to make it a table. Both sides are supported. But neither shows progress.

I think we're disagreeing on the word supported.
