"Our Democracy" in Practice in Austria

 From Breitbart: "Austrian Establishment Shuts Out Election-Winning Populist Party From Government." 

    Breaking from tradition, the populist Freedom Party will not be given a chance to form a government despite winning last month’s elections.

    Austrian President Alexander Van der Bellen announced Tuesday that incumbent Chancellor Karl Nehammer would be granted the chance to form a new government, despite his centre-right Austrian People’s Party (ÖVP) coming in second place at 26 per cent of the vote behind the Freedom Party of Austria’s (FPÖ) 29 per cent.

When the elites say "our democracy" what they mean is that it is "their democracy" and the plebs get no say.
