Why was democracy preached by the US hypocritical?

English
1 answer:
astra-53 [7]2 years ago
3 0
When the U.S. was just starting to form a government, they wanted to make sure power was equally distributed; make sure that power wasn’t just given to a handful of people. A democracy is power given equally and letting the citizens decide the role and impact of the government. The Founding Fathers wanted equality for everyone (everyone truly meaning all white men). At this time women and slaves still didn’t have political rights which is hypocritical to the meaning of democracy. When they said “Equality for all” they really meant “Equality for all white men.” That is the reason why the democracy preached by the U.S. was hypocritical.

Explain the term foil and how it is used in the play. Who were the foils to Hamlet in the play? Who do you think was Hamlet’s bi
Bezzdna [24]

Foil means a character who has the same motif.

Both Fortinbras and Laertes had the same motif as Hamlet. E well know that every one of them has lost his father but they differ in reactions. Laertes and Fortinbras they immediately acted after they heard about the death of their fathers but Hamlet delayed this is because of his flow.

Fortinbras acted quickly to avenge his father’s death by launching a huge military conquest which was against Denmark. Fortinbras engaged in the real leadership of Norwegian armies and expanded territory in his country.

Hamlet differs from Laertes in that Hamlet is introspective and indecisive while Laertes is impulsive and rash.

What is the minister's reaction when people plead for him to remove the veil at the end of his life?
algol [13]

Answer:

He is trying to hide his sins. Refusing to remove his mask seems like he wants others to be aware of their own sins before they see his. On the other hand, he is willing to be cast out by the people of the community.

Explanation:

He is literally willing to give up his love and the relationship that he has with Elizabeth. Men wear masks to hide their secrets. He is showing others that the mask has the ability to harm his relationship and to show others that they too are going to possibly have their relationships ruined.

Read the Bible where it has the verses where Jesus was telling the men to go ahead and cast a stone at the woman who was a sinner. Jesus told them, that if they are without sin, then cast the first stone. No one could cast a stone.
