simply because govt is generally the most centralized form of power

the less government you have, the closer to Ancapistan your state is <:BIGBRAIN:501101491428392991>

and corrupting one or two people is easier than 10 or 50

Better get those Child Slaves before the Muslims do

for muh Ancap state

Ideally I'd be a libertarian

but

you dont have to like the LP to be a Libertarian btw

I'm against political parties in general

GW was based on that issue

well I dont blame you tbh

I mean I disagree

but still

```The spirit of party serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill-founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection.
- George Washington```

American Democracy in its current state is a joke

I guess the US was the first modern democracy so it wasn't going to be perfect

but c'mon

```However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.
- George Washington```

while a bit too federalist to my liking, overall GW was BASED

Direct Democracy is something I'm interested in

it seems like the ideal form of democracy on paper

but there hasn't really been a true Direct Democracy in modern history

no no no

not direct democracy

abolishing parties != direct democracy

I know

direct democracy is a nightmare

^^

yeah but it's quite interesting

imo

if you just look at the history of the Greeks I think it was

you know why it aint good

yeah I'm not much of a fan of democracy in general

but it's a subject of great interest, since you know I live in one

technically

direct democracy = LA and NYC ruling over you

well on a federal level I suppose

if,

and this is a big if

if a direct democracy was created in America it would have to be on a local basis

idealy you wouldn't do it top down
