Democracy


I read an article today from a man who served in Afghanistan.....what he said was that The Afghan army was a jobs program supported by US.. It was people looking for jobs, not people wanting to fight for their country. Well meaning but for the wrong reasons.

Need i say more, of the results of both good intentions, and propaganda, that create the big Lie

The troubles with Afghanistan is our creation...and it's time we look in the mirror..WE say we believe in Democracy, but don't have a clue of what that is

It is and has been elitists. Defined, by wealth, nationality, race, an
political parties.. It has been fostered by perceptions, that don't deal with reality.
We don't do what we say.. We don't live according to it's principles. We define democracy as "AMERICAN" DEMOCRACY a bastardization of the word Democracy.. WE Lie to ourselves. because we live here, Like our system of Democracy , "may not be perfect, but it's the best the world has to offer." WTF..does that mean?

Democracy.....In truth and in lie...and the hypocrisy of..."We the People" have the ability to change things. That falsehoods, propaganda, and false perception. PREVENT

Right and Left .. "They" talk about doing what's best for Afghanistan..Like YOU get to decide.. You have no specifics goal that aren't self serving.. Think about about it.. What do you want to see in Afghanistan?...how do you want Afghanistan to be? Do you have the right?
WE gave Afghanistan the thing we can.. we opened the door for them to change thing...but we did it with twenty years of fighting, propaganda and Lies, and OUR authority to PERMIT what would happen.
In that patriarchal and misogynist society, it never really stood a chance.
For the Afghan people, who were not women..It was only a choice between the frying pan and the fire.

Think about it... Then think about what Democracy actually means. I am not making a political statement here.. It's more an anti-political statement... Both sides fight with weapons that are self destructing. In a Democracy there is only one side. The side of Truth.. you can't make up shit, because you can't decide what the truth is. Let the truth make that decision for you.

Very few understand that avoiding the truth, only gets you slapped down... .Perceptions and propaganda only can go so far..

WE have come to the conclusion..that proving someone else wrong... makes you right..That may be the greatest Lie of All

I don't have to prove to YOU I am right, or that You are wrong.... I am confident the TRUTH will.. whatever it is.

In 1970,, i believed the best way to deal with the middle East was to fence it off.. Let them deal with their own issue..let them fight it out between themselves..

the ideas of a Muslim culture that has been controlled by men, for men...is anti democracy .. it's the epitome of what we should be against.
For that matter it's the problem with almost all religions..

God is the forefather of Democracy
Religion is the downfall of Democracy.

In any form of government..It is human nature to become elitists.. Democracy is anti elitist..Democracy is about equality... That is nearly impossible to exist within our human nature..It's natural for a human to become elitist even when they believe in democracy, equality,and human rights. Elitist is that you are different , and that makes you better.....makes you better suited..... makes you understand better.. makes you worthy of control that you have NO RIGHT to

The irony about nearly all religions..Is they foster the idea of democracy, rights and equality....
but then again, every religion has been bastardized. by both true believer and non-believers . That being a part of that religion automatically creates your elitism
It's not so much in it's teaching...but in human nature. That makes you different ... that makes you better.

Almost all Republicans are ELITISTS.....and Democrats aren't immune.

It is ingrained in our institutions.. of governments, religion,and political parties,
that keeping you stupid .. keeps them in power.
WE have proven that is the way of the world.....Conversely
Trumpism has made that obvious to me..how easy it it is to do..
When people prefer to be elitists..and choose to do so, by being STUPID.

I say let the truth tell you what it is..

I spent the last fifty years in a fog of illusion.. that we were better than we actually are..

Nothing really changed for those fifty years..
But it took Trump.. to expose my illusion.

In a way your right.. Trump CONTROLS, me now..
but I ain't no sheep, it's an adverse reaction..
it's about Trump exposing me.. to the way I see things NOW.
It's a truth...that changes how I deal with truth.
And it's totally change how I deal with LIARs, manipulators, and STUPID people
Please don't get vaccinated and don't wear a mask.. Please go to one of Trump's rallies... Please watch Fox News
So it's a win win situation for me..since you can't teach people the truth..Then give them the opportunity to learn what a LIE is.. and if they can't learn about that.. then have them pay the consequences.
You have no endgame.. you are an idiot

The what is different.. and you can't get away from that.

Trump didn't change America..He brought out the Truth of America for the last fifty years

The truth, not of our government but our society. Government is far less important than a society..In some cases fixing government destroys the well-meaning society.. You can see how fixing.......welfare and abortions and taxation abuse.. has destroyed a society that once made the abuse of those things a stigma,now it's an entitlement
Conversely, fixing a society adverssly effects government. Trying to combat human rights and equality.. healthcare, education, and immigration as a
society matter has changed the way of government. Fifty years of trial and error..has resulted mostly in error. We got what we wanted... but lost what we had..

I heard an American in Afghanistan.. Who was pissed. I say f*ck him and leave him there..
You see what you want to see.. I saw and Afghani-America.... who wanted to immigrate his family probably for years. and Now see this as a golden opportunity to bring his family to America.. it's probably why he went to Afghanistan in the first place... He wasn't getting what he wanted and was angry. He could easily get out .. He just couldn't bring his extended family with him that pissed off.
