It's not about being 'allowed'. You take it.
Plato agreed with you. He (with influence from his mentor Socrates) conceived the idea of formal democracy, and ultimately found it did not work. His proposed solution was a Philosopher Prince, a sort of benevolent dictator.
I imagine that you're familiar with the government types existent; that's what we have to work with.
Unless some bright malcontent comes up with a novel idea...
Democracy fails in that it is susceptible to duplicity. But as Churchill said (forgive me for quoting that cretin), it's the best we've got.
Democracy fails most in that the electorate are easily bamboozled, and media (TV, Hollywood, government and other directed propaganda, the education system, etc) are the main culprits, and that's where focus needs to be directed. That's why stuff like Steemit works. To a small overall degree, I agree, but it does give us a place to start.
If you see a strong article, upvote it. Write your own.
And you talk to people every day. Know your stuff, and advance a polite but logically reasoned and fact based argument. It doesn't always work, but sometimes it does. I've had people stubbornly disagree with me and walk away, and much later tell me that the encounter had made them rethink some idea they'd previously held. So you do your best in a respectful way; one never knows which seeds might sprout.
Otherwise what are you going to do, drop your pants and roll over when they come to rape you?
Scratch their eyes out!
politely :)
dude... i don't fight who the illuminati tells me to fight - i fight the illuminati - you guys can blame/fight government or blame/fight economic groups but they sit at the bottom of the obelisk.. who and what i choose to fight sits at the top.
i am actually surprised i am still alive considering what i have done... but i am a real hard core motherfucker who just doesn't give a shit about consequences good or bad.
oh yah baby
"what i chose to fight sits at the top"
Exactly.
But you don't get far fighting goon squads or getting gassed in street protests. So you step back and consider, how does this paradigm work for them?
It's like we said earlier, keeping the suckers fooled.
And cashflow.
So we spread truth.
And focus on the money. One of the tactics that has always worked is a prolonged work disruption. If we could sanitize the unions, flush out the whores in the leadership, that would be a strong gain.
and none of that matters...
BTW, consequences are what matter. Good, or bad.
not to me.... after the life i was afforded here consequences be damned - i just dgaf
Have you read this Assange piece by Suzie Dawson?
It speaks to much of what we discussed.
nope... i don't really read the news... like seriously what is the point... every single solitary news media source is a bag of total shit as far as i am concerned...
It's not 'news', it's a detailed account of activist persecution and activist support.
If there was no point, the spooks wouldn't spend billions on the attack.
know a few things about being persecuted by governments and their agencies however governments don't run things, they never did, they do as they are told by the secret groups that really run things... i like to mess with them, as they are the real problem the planet faces;
