Just Say NO To "Democracy"
and any other form of "government."
Democracy is not moral. It is the tyranny of a majority. The word derives from the Greek ‘kratos’ meaning “power to rule” and ‘demos’ meaning “people.” Similarly to what Thomas Jefferson said: it’s the 51% deciding what right and wrong are arbitrarily and forcing it onto the remaining 49%. Just because a majority agrees on something doesn’t make it true, or right, or good. And no one, whether group or individual, has the right to rule.
I’m so sick of this word. People throw it around as if it means “sovereignty,” and it absolutely does not. It’s just a trick; a psy-op. It’s collectivist “authority” euphemized to be appealing.
Every individual needs to discover what is objectively right and wrong and align their behavior to it.
Right = correct = moral = non-harmful to others
Wrong = incorrect = immoral = harmful to others
It is that simple. If we can live by that, as a species, we will thrive in peace, prosperity, freedom and order. If we’re making shit up because it makes us feel better or validates our beliefs, we’re inevitably going to cause chaos and suffering. And that’s what we’re doing.
Our lack of true conscience is why the current human condition is a trash fire under the rule of psychopaths. We don’t understand that “authority” is immoral; that “government” is illegitimate. It’s slavery. We’re all condoning slavery and then wonder why everything sucks.
We want to give our own personal responsibility over to someone else and call it “freedom.” We want political parasites to pass “laws” that infringe upon the rights of others just so we can feel more comfortable… AND call it “freedom.” It’s mass madness.
There is only ONE moral position. It’s not Right, Left, or Center. It’s not even Libertarian. It’s NO rulers, NO masters, NO slaves. It’s Natural Law. As we become more moral, we become more free. No belief required, just right behavior. Stop harming others, stop taking what isn’t yours, and stop condoning such behavior being done by others (politicians, police, military, etc).
It’s fine to establish rules for a community as long as they aren’t violently enforced or based in arbitrary opinion. It’s fine to have voluntary crimewatch and patrolling for actual wrongful behavior (murder, theft, assault, etc) as long as these individuals are not considered “authority.” It’s fine to have leaders as long as they are not seen as “ruling authorities” (legislators, governors, presidents, prime ministers, kings, etc) that must be obeyed. Instead of taxation (extortion via coercion), we can have crowdfunding. Centralized “authority,” “government” and “law” are immoral and unnecessary. Mob rule is immoral and unnecessary.
No matter how you want to euphemize it – if it’s not 100% voluntary, it’s slavery. You cannot have a “greater good” with violent means. The true greater good is being able to exercise one’s Natural Rights free from duress, coercion and restriction; and that goes for both the individual and the whole. There is no whole without the individual. One doesn’t supersede the other.
You cannot have freedom without if you don’t have freedom within. If you’re enslaved by ego, wrong thinking, false morals, and nonsense belief systems, you WILL be enslaved externally. Without real principles and conscience you become a manipulator’s dream date. They will convince you that you owe them your devotion, your money, your freedom and your life. We’ve been in a toxic relationship for way too long now. It’s time to break up. It won’t be fun or easy, and we’ll have to build ourselves back up, but it has to be done. No rebounds! Once it’s over we can’t go putting ourselves back into another one.
No democracy, no oligarchy, no technocracy. No minarchy, either. Only one person has the right to govern your life and choices: YOU.
