No, it's not. Unless you use the definition of democracy that only fascists use to attack the concept.
Democracy isn't a total dictatorship of the majority. The term implies protection of basic human rights, even if 50+% vote in favor of something that would violate them.

I don't know if that counts, but on a fresh default Debian Stable system, my cat walked across the keyboard and the DE crashed.
I could still switch to another TTY and reboot via command line.
After the reboot, I was greeted by a blinking cursor and nothing else. Had to reinstall.
I disagree completely. Protection of human rights is a fundamental part of the concept of democracy.
A political system that decides everything purely based on majority vote, with no protections whatsoever for minority rights, is NOT a democracy.
You may call it one, but then you're simply redefining the word.
