I suppose it's because i feel that at their core, more people than not, would sell democracy down a river for secure employment, food on the table for their families and a predictable tomorrow, if it came to that. Many people clamouring for democracy are just clamouring for a better deal, if democracy doesn't deliver they'll deliver it to an early de ...[text shortened]... It's not the case in all scenarios, but some have proven themselves unable to handle democracy.
The personal fear of letting democracy succeed is the point. That you should point it out just in advance of me is cudo's to you.
But you are right. For when the world finally outlaws "dictatorship" then the nearest axiom to the law will be the need of the individual to fight for what is right. Never to rely on "those brave others" to do it for us.
We must become those "brave others" who fight collectivism and mindless evil.

Yes. A regular "radical" just talks about it over tea. An extremist is one who will die for the cause if given an opportunity and/or a reason.
"Move On Dot Orgasmers" are radicals to the idea of communism.
But I doubt that you will see any of them bombing the white house any time soon. That requires "extremism".
Oh the insults that spring to mind!
Haven't you called me an extremist? If so, doesn't that annihilate your premise? Clearly, I do not qualify as extremist. Cowardly, yes. Wimpy, maybe. But not extremist.

Who am I to argue?
Ahem.... entertain us. If anything "springs" to yer' mind. That should be good.
Insult no end dude. Go for it. Let us have it.
Originally posted by StarValleyWyOh please, SVW. Why would I waste even a bit of effort on such a pathetic creature as yourself?
I have a hard time. Are you the pro-religious nut or the anti-religious nut? I know you are nuts. Just can't remember your leanings.
Mostly because I don't care and you make no intellectual effort.
After all you the one who boasted so much knowledge of economics only to waltz in with a cut n paste job of a Phillip's Curve ๐ What's next the Maltusian Theory of Overpopulation? Maybe some Ray-Gun trickle down economics? Or perhaps some more deep economic insight from Dr. Dick Armey on the Mundell-Fleming model and zero taxation (because you know that economics program at U of Okla was so big back in the 50's. It just fell 400 spots later. Yeah right.)
You're worse than the religous nut I have for an avatar. You substitute 'communists' for Satan, 'terrorists' for sin, 'chimps' for souls, and a big elephant for God and you've got the sum of SVW's worldview.
Originally posted by StarValleyWyI don't know, if you got rid of all the dictators, some scumbag
Why?
That "conditioning" thing? Think about it. Why do you feel it is a difficult thing?
It ain't. It would be easy. Except for our miserable education system that wants democracy to fail.
And not just the educational system. Half the political systems in so called "democratic nations" want dictators to continue on. Do you have any clue why? I do.
somewhere would see an opportunity. A better plan would be
to genetically expunge the dictatorship gene๐
