oof
I'm talking about you, chucklenuts.
I know, lover
also, im part of the audience too
@Boop / 브파 / C'thUwU Sorry im only just getting to see this. I agree with everyone you said essentially. I guess the biggest thing bugging me has been if Democracy is so essentially was is there so many who are very vocal about it not being as needed. Is it arguable they are just misguided or are they trying to ruin the system on purpose?
"Anyone who tells you not to think is not your friend."
probably quite a few reasons
one i would imagine is fearmongering and misinformation via mainstream media
A lot of people think they have the facts, when in actuality they've been thoroughly misled.
and the fact that influential people such as celebrities are very far removed from society that they just say things like 'everyone should just get a house whats so hard about that'
That's what happens when the MSM abandons all pretense of objectivity.
but they dont look into it because theyre in a costume for 9 hours pretending to be someone else
Actors act. Celebrities act up.
the fact that the masses are ez to mislead is not exactly a gr8 argument in favor of democracy you know...
then theres also moral equivalency, where technically, islam and Christianity are completely neutral in their objective stance to reality
one is not better than the other on principle
except it depends on the productions of both of them
this statement is nonsensical
they both *are* different moral systems
but then you get the narrative of the power struggle of the Marxists which is to say that people have power because they took it from others
abandoning the idea of being more popular because you align with human's necessity and desries for things thatre are fast, efficient, and cheap
the only way you can judge one as better or worse then the other is if you have your own moral system to judge them by, and if you do, you obviously consider that system to be superior to either, so it;s really not a very important distinction at all
they're both just wrong
democracy is the worst form of government except for all the others
at best one of them is less wrong then the other
it isnt perfect, but its as good as we can get, and the utopian's think they have solutions for the problems democracy brings
you are aware that this is a non-argument right?
such as corruption of some form or another
I can insert any other political system in there instead of democracy, and the statement would be unchanged in its meaning
it's just a statement of faith
and its no surprise that the people that are on the left of the spectrum are younger people, who dont know enough about the world because they have yet to get the oppertunities to learn it
I'm pretty sure medieval peasants thought the same thing about the particullar kind of monarchy they were living under
but also, without them, we arent so easily able to solve problems that they might have fresh takes on because they havent built that mental box
you're just stating vapid platitudes...
so to be opposed to democracy and by extention free markets, is to be misinformed or yet-to-be-informed about political history, philosophy, and technically speaking 'god' in the sense of 'what seems to be the best ways to live in the world that minimizes suffering'
democracy has pretty much nothing to do with free markets
and also you have those that want to see the system break down because there are psychopaths in humanity that want to achieve power or thrive in destabalisation
aka, the trope of Raiders in fallout universes
God this is depressing
you're just making statements and ignoring all the criticism
and also some people have delusions that they are way more powerful than they really are, because if they realise through learning and objective comparisons to others, then they will break down and be mentally defenseless
