In light of the positions I've taken in the past, I can't blame you for
your interpretation, but that's not what I meant. How to promote democracy
in non-democratic social orders is a real problem without any one size fits
all solution(s). Even when and where there are solutions, we might not
(often are not) bright enough to conceive of and implement them.
