Truth unveiled @ETBrooD

Not sure this is unveiling anything

Or may be just what you do not want to hear?

What are my beliefs about democracy, do you know?

Nope.

But I'm not commenting on you either.

And what are anyone else's beliefs around here about democracy, do you know that one?

I'm commenting on @kunou126 post.

I have an idea.

Well then don't say "you people"

I have talked with enough Westerners to form an opinion .

This discord is very different from the average westerner

How so?

We have many opinions on many things, very often opposing ones, and we put a lot more effort into understanding politics than the average person

By the way, I'm not a Westerner, but I think I'm quite politically educated.

You probably won't find as much support for democracy around here as you would in real life

Does it bother you?

I have no time for the grandiose

Then, what do you have the time to?

What is your opinion on concepts like the equality of the people, the civil liberty, the rule of law and even democracy itself?

You can be democratic but not a democracy.

As far as I see it, this guy,Rosenberg, has some very valid points to make, and he does so in extensive and thorough manner.

So how do YOU people propose to address his concerns?

How about we don't

What should do you think will happen if a bunch of idiots took all power and started slaughtering people while the crowds cheered at them?

Well that's quite an escalation

Do you know why there are no democracies in the Middle East, at least, viable ones?

Because of Islam

I tell you.

Because if you just give the people of the region with their cultural background and their religious believes the freedom to choose "by themselves" their leaders they will vote in the most fanatical and bloodthirsty bastards available who will fuck up the country so bad they will have to revert back to their primitive tribalistic existence.

But here is the think.

revert? <:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

These people LOVE to live in tribes. It's their "culture" to say the least.

Violence and bloodshed doesn't bother them. They thrive under it.

I doubt they thrive

Un unveiled woman is much more of a thing, than having a child bride or torturing your slave.

It's what they are used to.

So why does that pertain to people in the West?

Imagine giving freedoms and liberty to such of a culture, what should happen then?

Cause you think your ideas are universal and they can work for all and anywhere.
