"Unelected Bureaucrats Using Their Power to Undermine Elected Officials Is How We Save Democracy!"
We’re now on the “OK it exists, but it’s a good thing” stage of the Deep State Conspiracy.
After the midterms, we’ll probably get “The FBI was on the ground on 1/6. Here’s how they prevented mass murder.”
Democracy, meaning rule of the people, does not exist and never has this side of the year 1500.
Democracy, meaning a method of giving legitimacy for the administrative class in a capitalist corporate state, is the rule in all western nations.
Now then, assuming 'we' want actual democracy, there are as I see it two main avenues of approach:
Sell the idea to the current elites that they actually have something to gain from letting ethno-nationalist states have real democracy, or remve from life all those who oppose real democracy.
Both are extreme, both are unrealistic and both are frankly quite depressing to consider when one starts to think of the actions and logistics and costs involved.
It might actually be, that the current state of affairs is the best we - meaning western cultures and societies - can achieve.
What a truly horrible notion that is.
This really is all they have left. My only question is will it work? Are people really that blind?
