The failure of democracy throughout history

What is it about democracy that causes it to always fail? What causes democracy to be so very susceptible to corruption, mass hysteria, fraud, and ignorance?

What are you talking about?

Yeah, I don’t get out to talk very much concerning a social life. The internet is all I have to communicate what otherwise are my own cherished unpopular views on things. I work a lot of hours too but sometimes get bored in between. Stupid office cubicles.

Why democracy is an inefficient and failure of a government model.

You don’t live in North Korea, do you?

I think it is because democracy ties political leadership to the will of the average citizen. And over time, the average citizen becomes more and more stupid, lazy and unconcerned with very much other than his own narcissism.

Democracies at first remove tyranny, which is good. They lead to an increase in freedom for the average citizen, which is good. This leads to increased prosperity and peace. This, in turn, leads to affluence, decadence, all the things that happened to Rome and are happening to us right now. The whole cycle of ā€œstrong men make easy times, easy times make weak men, weak men make hard times, hard times make strong menā€.

No, but I would like to visit and explore there sometime.

I think since the very first days of ancient Athens democracy was a way to remove monarchy so that the wealthy lords or aristocrats could undermine the king in gaining power to spread oligarchy everywhere knowing they could prey upon the majority of the population’s ignorance where they could buy votes or bribe voting commissioners. It was the first stepping stone to undermining strong central governments in ancient times where things have evolved throughout history over time ever since then. Today’s neoliberalism is the apex or highest historical peak of oligarchy.

Ancient Rome was a republic, and again it was the wealthy aristocrats that corrupted the senate via the voting process where the only people to salvage the empire were the individual emperors stepping in.

Again, then, it comes back to the relative lack of education of the average person compared to the super-rich (aristocrats, oligarchs, merchants, billionaires, whatever term you want to use it all means basically the same time) and the relative lack of capital of the average person compared to the super-rich. These two factors put together… spell the corruption and re-wiring of a society even well-intended originally in its construction to be little more than an extension of the will of the hidden leaders at the top.

What would be most helpful to an oligarch-class then, is a way to fool the people into thinking they are really in control, and fool them into thinking their leaders really do have their best interest at heart no matter what is ACTUALLY OCCURRING in the society. So we have every mechanism of deceptions and lies, false flags and psyops, media fake realities and psychological manipulation of the people, all designed to keep them oblivious to the oligarchy they live in and the fact that none of the leaders sees them as anything other than disposable ā€œuseless eatersā€. Yet it would be impractical for them to try and kill off the average person, to really cull the population down as they EVENTUALLY want to do, so they are stuck for now pandering to the masses they despise.

With advanced robotics and AI, once these are literally everywhere, it will finally be possible for them to cull the population down to a few percent of where it is today. Then they can live in their automated robot world with a few million of their chosen members… or maybe the ā€œ144,000ā€ predictive programmed in the Jewish holy text.

Are you saying that because you think a certain fringe group of psychotic Christians are going to make it happen that way?

Are you saying ā€œpredictive programmedā€œ because you think AI had/has access to the prophet who wrote Revelation 7?

Quantum computing, am I right?

Anchor beyond the veil, there, buddy.

The GrƦco-Romans recorded and warned about the failures of Democracies long ago…

The main problem is that a demographic is setup, a majority and minority vote is formed. Let’s say it’s 45-55. The 45 minority need 6% to gain power. So what do they do? They start appealing to women and children, the weaker men of society, socialistic causes… We need to ā€œlower the voting ageā€, be ā€œmore inclusiveā€. We need to ā€œexpand representationā€. We need ā€œwomen into politics!ā€ This creates Liberalism and Leftism.

They gain more, temporarily, until things go bad, they lose power, and need to expand their voting-base again, and again, and again, continually selling-out their society’s power for the party’s political power.

It always fails in the end, because the weak, sickly, cowardly, and criminal always take over and destroy the society in the end.

Because its a contest of popularity. Watch Young Sheldon episodes and you’ll see what I mean.

Most people are idiots, so its just a way to get people chosen by idiots.

Example: Unbox therapy is a youtube channel that makes garbage reviews. It is popular because he gets paid by companies to make garbage and fake reviews, which allows him to increase his production value of his videos and increase his popularity.

You’re correct that it’s about education and thievery.

This topic is so huge that I’m too lazy to make a post about it right now.

One thing I’ll say, is that you have to attract the most intelligent people in the world to be dominant. Immigration right? The US is starting to fail at this.

I’ll add to this. America was on top, because they protected freedom of speech and the rule of law.
They attracted all the smart people. People like Trump are so stupid that America is not a haven anymore for the intelligencia. In this current generation, people are floating upon the residue of a great nation.

Sure. Illegal immigration is serious. People who can’t even speak our language. But we cater to them. There are so many Spanish channels on cable that they don’t even take the time to learn English as citizens. Back in the old days at ellis island, people had to pass English tests to become citizens. The slave labor changed all that. Trump makes money off the thing he’s fighting against. This is how Machiavellian’s rule. Trump is actually stupid as fuck from the perspective of spirit, because his best is destroying the United States. And he uses fear and propaganda to ā€˜win’. I’ve met Trumpers. They’re absolutely insane. Why would a person vote against their best interest?

They are motivated by fear and they lack education.

I’ll add to this. From Trumps perspective he’s trying to keep the ultra-rich in the United States.
The problem is that the ultra-rich have no national boundaries whatsoever like most people in the world. He 'simply catering to them without thinking it through. The ultra rich are into globalism, and they already are globalists. They don’t care about the spirit of the constitution or it’s amendments. I used to have certain forms of OCD. I understand the ultra-rich as game theory very well. They want to make as much money as possible without being attacked. My personal form of OCD which hasn’t gone away is to have sex with as many women I can without hurting anyone’s feelings. The money game is easy for me. But I loathe prostitution. I want a woman to have sex with me when I’m poor.

Trump is attacking hgiher education right now for the elites to stay in power

Why do you trump up this demonrat rhetoric?

You would rather a demonrat in office?

For decades people have been complaining about America being crooked and now someone is going to drain the swamp and the only thanks they get is you bitch and moan about it.

Everything demonrats say is bullshit. Nothing but anti-trump propoganda 24/7. If you want America to become Canada or Australia then by all means vote demonrat and eat ze bugs

Asmongold is right again, never found an Asmongold vid that steered me wrong:

It sounds like your issue is not with Trump but with the ultra rich.

The money game is easy for me. But I loathe prostitution. I want a woman to have sex with me when I’m poor.

What has this got to do with trump

Oh. Interesting. I have no problem with how much money you have. The problem in my mind is how many hearts you have to stomp on to have it. Trump is the first president in history where people actually cried out of grief when he was elected. That’s how bad he actually was.

America will survive Trump. Even though he works every day to destroy it. Because of his supreme court nominations. It will take 100 years to repair America. But it will survive.

And in case you’re wondering…
I’m not a democrat. I have no political party
