I’ve seen a number of people trying to deny the truth, and it’s honestly sickening at this point. How bad do things have to get for people to acknowledge what I recognized on the night of November 5th? People really cannot handle reality as it is.

Fellow lemmings… What do you actually consider to be “democracy”? What does it look like, how does it work?
To me, the word seems meaningless in the context of nation state society. There seems to be a dissonant gulf between it’s notion and it’s practice. Or is there no dissonance at all - Is it still the direct consensus of a small collection of propertied men at the top of a hierarchical slave-holding society, just as it was in ancient Athens where they coined the term, and that is still the exact ideal we worship?
In this context, it was a system of the latter which promised it could change into more. It’s really spanned the spectrum over the years, with more or less input from peasants within the last century, but now even that system is gone, and only those with the power of feudal lords have any meaningful influence.
We have a temporary dictatorship that will devolve into feudal infighting after the king’s death. Not really a good situation unless we can weaken the entire system enough to carve out localized independence.
