Democracy was never supposed to be the mob. Voters were supposed to be landed men.

That means the smallest political unit is not the individual, but the family.

By having only landed men vote, that ensures that only contributors to the economy get a say.

Those are the two critical principles of successful democracy, which is still worthwhile imo. What we have in the West now is just mob rule as you say.

You are correct after the voting age and landholders requirements were abolished, we get this crap that we are witnessing today.

While that might sound like a step backwards, I believe that it is the right move all the same.

I have tried to use the example from the film "Starship Troopers".

(read the book....far better than the movie....pure gung ho! ;0)

Well, they had the saying "SERVICE GUARANTEES CITIZENSHIP"

We need something like that.....

I've said it before and I'll say it again -

The best, simplest and least discriminatory thing any democratic model could do right now is to restrict voting to those people who are Net Contributors to the national economy. We have the means now to quantify an individual's contribution and consumption. It's not gender based, it's not racist. It's not a very high bar. Just put in more than you take out and you'll get your vote.

This would be the first step to restoring sanity to government policy. The biggest improvement would come immediately with the removal of the majority of the insane voices from the gallery.

I mostly agree. I used to believe the melting pot bullshit. Now, even being only half white myself, I think the US is better off as an ethno state based on white and Christian values. And I think democracy is fine but that it shouldn't be one person one vote. The amount of votes you get should increase as you get older. This way the people who have lived in a city/state/ the nation longer get more of a say in its direction. Bullshit that some newly arrived immigrant gets the same political say as someone who's lived here for decades.

It would. In my system, you get allocated one vote for each year you've been an adult of voting age in that voting district. So if you're 28 born and raised a US citizen, you get 10 votes in Federal elections. But if you only moved to that state 3 years ago, you only 3 in state elections. When senior citizens are dumping 30-50 more votes per voter than a stupid kid in college, we don't need millions of people to vote for bland, pandering do-nothing candidate. A small percentage of the population can have a massively disproportionate influence on elections.

While I doubt you want to hear analysis from a woman, Karen Straughn has written and spoken about this topic with clarity and honesty.

I think that that talk has a part about what Women have done to the workplace.

"May you live in interesting times"....did you know that that one was originally a CURSE?

Primarily it is because they believe Compassion is the valid basis of governing humans. It isn't.

Fathers are needed for precisely this reason, lest (most, not all) women indulge and spoil their children into repulsive little shits.

It's funny because NAZI is short for Nationalsozialistische, which is German for National Socialist.

The Nazis were members of the National Socialist German Workers Party (Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei).

Literal socialists.

Zaxxaz3 26 points ago +27 / -1

Leftists are always quick to say they weren't really socialists, and back on Reddit I couldn't argue against it because anytime I happen to mention the Nazi economy was a command economy they all freak out.

And for the people who take this argument because that wasn't according to some particular definition; A common feature of Marxist ideologies is hating rival Marxists

I explain to them that in Greece there is the KKE - Communist Party of Greece

and there is also M-L KKE and KKE M-L

M-L stands for Marxists Leninist, so does the other M-L

In the last election M-L KKE and KKE M-L joined, but that was it. In a country of 10 million people...

The "left wing" party that won the elections in 2015 was literally a coalition of the left that got 2-3% before it won, the SY in SYRIZA stands for coalition

For a group of individuals that believe so much in working together they can barely work together

Nazi's weren't Marxists. Not because they killed communists but because Fascism was literally created as an alternative to Marxist Communism. They fought for the same consumer base. Fascism embraced socialism but rejected the aspects of globalist class warfare that Marxism was based on. Instead it substituted the elements of globalism and class identity for elements of nationalism and ethnic identity.

I have read Mussolini. He started off as a Marxist, but became disillusioned with Marxism, which is why he developed his theories on Fascism. He still based those quite largely on the Marxist background from which he came, so there remain many overlapping ideas. But Nazis were definitively not Marxist.

I'm not questioning the Marxist roots of Nazism. But Nazism isn't Marxism in the same way that Leninism isn't Marxism, or that Trotskyism isn't Marxism. Yes indeed they have a great deal of commonality based on their shared philosophical origins, just like Catholics and protestants do. But they aren't the same thing.

This really is how Franco took over Spain and many old people miss him.

He made things better they say. I don't know. I didn't live in Franco Spain. But they love socialism too damn much and they all expect someone else to do something about problems.

Communists in Spain destroyed over 600 churches. Something they don't really mention in the history books.

Commies in spain literally dug up the bodies of nuns and priests and desecrated them.

When I say commies are worse than Nazis, Im not lying.

I think we should deport every single person that votes for Communism in November. If you vote for Biden and against American values then you forfeit your citizenship and need to gtfo. Just take the voter rolls and ship them out.

People are starting to LIKE the idea of fascism? Um, no. Fucking retarded analysis there. People are starting to realize just how fascist the left actually wants to be, and tries to be. People are starting to LIKE the idea of not being polite about their hatred of the left. People are starting to LIKE the idea of exterminating leftists in the streets, like they've been trying to do to conservatives, only actually accomplish it.

Ive been saying for a while that all these whiny faggots protesting "fascists nazis" dont what real fascists nazis look like and what they're capable of. Right now, all they're protesting is normal people sitting idly by waiting for common sense to take over. If/when the real baddies show up, they will be fucked hard. And to be honest, I wouldnt give a shit what happens to them.
