This argument is stupid. A (representative) republic is considered a form of Democracy.

Otherwise they are no Democracies in the World, as basically every state that is considered a Democracy is a republic.

Rise and shine.  


Every (literally every last of them) country in the very best case is "representative democracy" and representatives are always owned by some entity which has nothing to do with representing your (regural NPC's) insterests. Be it corporations, oligarchy, mafia, just dudes who have more money than you and can bribe through their way while shitting on top of your head - the same shit everywhere, except some countries pretend they're not like that simply via calling corruption "lobbyism".
