> Democracy can always save a country from the mess.

Unless the people themselves want to give up on democracy and… oh, I don't know, let's pick a random example out of thin air… storm government buildings to stop the process to keep their desired leader in power.

To be fair (however painfully), a healthy percentage of those people believed they were there to save democracy.

We all believe things that are poorly-supported by facts, possibly serving an agenda we don't understand, and are clearly stupid when viewed rationally and with better information.

I will not defend their actions, but I have some compassion for the well-meaning dupes, and I wish the legal process could neuter their manipulator-perpetrators.

And then they all get pardoned, including the neonazis, by said leader that is elected 4 years later because the people have very short memory and he wants to protect his brown shirts.

and, probably, have his own militia

Yeah, they failed - the system saved itself again
