It doesn't work. It never worked.

Democracy needs to die?

Yep

It's a stupid ass idea built on false premises.

False Premise 1: humans are intelligent and know what is best for themselves

It's certainly better than communism. No governmental system is going to be perfect.

It works when the people put in the effort. In countries of scared , ignorant, low educated, authoritarian seeking nitwits who think they know better, of course not.

Lol democracy isn't a government system, communism is as Democratic as capitalism lol

False Premise 2: the masses can't be manipulated by someone running for position

False Premise 3: the most popular idea is the best idea

False Premise 4: human being are inherently good natured

False Premise 5: what's good for many is good for all

Democracy is a stupid ass idea and always has been.

I mean europe seems to be doing better than we are.

Slavery used to be popular, ironic that the federal government ruled against the majority. Not many talk about that though.

I love how people act like 'communist' democracy is somehow worse than 'capitalist' democracy

Maybe it's *our* government that needs to be overhauled to comply with modern times.

Slavery wasn't popular lmao

Slavery was never really engaged in by more than a few % of the population. Slavery is literally an example of why democracy doesn't work.

And Europe is only doing a little better than us.

what? Every plantation in america *had* to have slaves so how can you say slavery wasn't popular?

Every plantation was owned by a low % of the population

And those slaves put many people out of work, destroying the economy.

So like..

yes but there was a high percentage of slaves because one farmer owned hundreds of saves.

The majority supported policy that actively hurt them.

Percentage of slaves is literally irrelevant, but nice dodge.

% of people who owned slaves is the relevant number here.

So like I was saying.

Democracy needs to die because Humanity, at the current moment, can NOT be trusted to do what is best for Humanity.

Well then who is going to run the country?

We're conditioned to be selfish, disengaged, and too exhausted to be able to understand the world around us and how everything is interconnected.

Literally the intellectual elite.

you support meritocracy?

Humanity, as a whole, is trash.

We aren't prepared for a meritocracy either, as those require equal chances for everyone.

Humans are imperfect. If you can find a perfect system that benefits everyone and doesn't leave anyone else behind then I want to see it.

We literally need a dictatorship of the proletariat with policy decided by experts in the fields, not lawyers.

People will always ve left behind. Fuck em.

Conservatives need to learn to adapt.

"Old thing good" is not only wrong, it's fucking retarded

And trump wants to be that dictator
