  • Let's talk about democracy

    I'll star with a bit of Plato



    Some aspects are dated others not quite so...
    Modern man calls walking more quickly in the same direction down the same road “change.”
    The world, in the last three hundred years, has not changed except in that sense.
    The simple suggestion of a true change scandalizes and terrifies modern man. -Nicolás Gómez Dávila

          Didn't I already explain that Slovenia isn't part of the West?

          With regards to democracy, it is both good and bad. I can't go into details today. Trust me.

            democracy is the worst form of government...except for all the others.
            "The Christian way has not been tried and found wanting, it has been found to be hard and left untried" - GK Chesterton.

            "The most obvious predicition about the future is that it will be mostly like the past" - Alain de Botton

              They didn't accept me as King, so I support democracy now.

                      Of course. People dont want universal and perpetual
                      happiness; they could no longer complain.
                      Statistical anomaly.
                      The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

                            I'd rather talk about these philosophers:

                            You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.
