Your guy losing a free and fair vote is NOT "anti-democratic", it's how a vote _works_


That's the point. Their guy won the free and fair vote, but people in Kyiv decided he was unacceptable and overthrew him. (There were a lot of extenuating circumstances I'm glossing over, and I tend to agree that he was a bad dude - but if it were a president you voted for, would you be convinced by someone arguing that extenuating circumstances mean it's best to undemocratically toss him out?)
