You do not have the impression that American democracy already 50 years, is the most tyrannical regime?

not at all. In fact, just the opposite. They haven't had any central organized or focused power or authority for decades. We have split party rule, endless gridlock, yet still a high degree of personal freedoms compared to most. That doesn't fit my definition of tyranny whatsoever. If anything, there is a degree of economic tyranny at work, in the absence of government focus, but that has utterly nothing to do with American democracy, which you decried. By the way, the US is not, nor ever was, a democracy. It is a representative republic. Subtle, but quite different.

Let I will not show you pictures and videos of how the United States dictates American democracy, not only in other countries, but also in America.

Well, that's not why I would go to America, if I have such a desire.
