Democracy can get rather sticky and inconvenient when suddenly the people, the citizens, the great unwashed, want those silly privileges like democracy, freedom of speech, the right to assemble and peacefully state their case. I mean honestly, if “the people” got democracy what would they do with it anyway?
Surely, we don’t want people making decisions for themselves, challenging authority, questioning the ethical/moral/ financial intent of elites…
Of course, we don’t want democratic countries full of citizens spontaneously deciding regardless of what their own government says or wants to reach out even only in international sisterhood and brotherhood, to another bunch of citizens in another country, who are risking their lives for democracy. I mean where can all that lead us?
Please don’t rec pony party… Oh, and I am scooting off to Seattle. Can’t do PP next week so if you can… I would be thankful lest Pf8 think I just forgot about it.
