"People actually bought into this on a grand scale, and voluntarily injected this poison?"
*Democracy: the God that Failed* is economist Hans-Hermann Hoppe's treatise on behalf of a "fully privatized social order." In developing his theme, he argues that the typical subject of a Medieval European monarchy enjoyed a higher level of personal liberty (not a higher standard of living) than the typical citizen of a modern Western democracy.
A Medieval peasant understood that his interests and the king's interests were two different things. If the king wanted to raise taxes, he had to send his henchmen throughout the realm to shake down the peasants. They were apt to resist. The peasant knew taxes made the king richer and the peasant poorer.
The average citizen of a modern democracy believes in the "public interest." "We are the government," he tells himself. "Democracy is the best form of government. Everybody votes and everybody has a voice. *Vox populi, vox dei*!"
Millions and millions of otherwise intelligent human beings fell in line with the most bizarre and arbitrary pronouncements. Lockdowns, testing, cases, masking, social distancing, the dodgy vaccines--none of it made sense. It didn't have to make sense. We had directives proceeding from the august lips of the "public health" authorities.
The Science had spoken. As had the Great God Democracy.
“Every step…towards…democracy is an advance towards destruction…Liberty has never yet lasted long in a democracy; nor has it ever ended in anything better than despotism.–(1801)” — Fisher Ames, (1758-1808; Congressman from Massachusetts)
"Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts and murders itself. There was never a democracy that did not commit suicide" ----Letter from John Adams to John Taylor, 17 December 1814
Democracy, Republic...etc......it is all the same.
Political ideologies matter not, all of them use 'collectivism' and 'enFORCEment' to make people obey, the only difference would be the degrees of brutality by the varied states against the people.
The reality is regardless of the political Ideology it is all 'mind control' (Govern= to control/ Ment, Mental, Mentis= the mind)
I'll be the first to admit that it's not perfect. But if you compare every other country on earth to the United States, we still have the best system. There are solutions to make it better, such as term limits, line item veto, returning to the rule of law. Also to point out, our own Supreme Court refused to uphold the Constitution, giving us Joe Biden. I'm not sure how to fix that since the SC is the final word, but when they're wrong it's disastrous.
Imagine a crook who breaks in your house only has ten minutes to steal not an hour.....The crook is still going to steal, thus term limits will do zilch for the theft and corruption that exist....besides the crooks keep coming from the same place, vote one crook out and vote one crook back in but it is the best system so lets stay with it....right?
Our OWN Supreme Court?
It is not "OUR" Supreme Court and where does it say they are the last word?
How does that work when you cannot vote for the so called Supreme Court and they are the last word?
Clearly that sounds like a shitty system and just what is the state of the country? Shitty sounds about right.
Maybe you ought to think real hard about a better way to live life that does not require all the corruption, gang behavior, collectivism and enFORCEment that comes with government.
The CONstituion?
“But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case it is unfit to exist.” ― Lysander Spooner, No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority
All of DC including Trump and RFK JR. are deep state.
Some are just very good at covertly working toward it.
Recall Fauci saying Trump would see a pandemic in his admin right?
Here is what Trump did to accelerate the destruction from within.
2019/06/24 - Congress and President Trump passed Pandemic and All-Hazards Preparedness and Advancing Innovation Act - PL 116-22, 133 Stat. 905. Amended Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 201), further consolidating federal power in HHS Secretary’s hands during public health emergencies, further merging public health and law enforcement systems, and further subordinating state, tribal, county and municipal governments and American civilians to direct federal control.
and then this happened six months later:
2020/01/27 - US Secretary of Health and Human Services Determination that a Public Health Emergency Exists. Signed Jan. 31, 2020, effective Jan. 27, 2020. Renewed every 90 days since then. Also signed a ‘declaration that circumstances exist justifying the authorization of emergency use of in vitro diagnostics for detection and/or diagnosis of this novel coronavirus.’ The determination and declaration were recorded in the Federal Register as taking effect Feb. 4, 2020. 85 Federal Register 7316.
DJT put the final nail on the coffin of The Constitution and HHS buried with the announcement.
We are still being governed by HHS and DOD, two unelected agencies and under this delcaration.
Trump was completely powerless his entire last year and he knew he could never do anything about his stolen election even though he made it look like he tried.
I just wish everyone would take off these rose colored glasses about Trump and people like DeSantis because they are covert and bred for deep state work.
No one is coming to save us except ourselves.
The entire scene is just theatre to keep all that is going on, hidden from being seen by the public.
Congress and SCOTUS and lower level courts are completely under control of HHS and DOD.
Don't expect help from the states because they are deeply embedded into this.
So Deep State Trump was run out of office with a stolen election because....? Hillary was expected to win and everyone was caught off guard by the numbers of votes Trump got. Not every wealthy person is automatically Deep State.
Trump is a wealthy businessman who went along with a lot of stuff he didn't understand when it came to COVID. His entire career was about building projects (towers in big cities), golf and wealth, not biology. He has zero understanding of biology or medicine and no way to gauge which doctors were telling him what except their "reputation".
He was literally targeted to be removed repeatedly throughout his 4 years because he was a problem for the Deep State. He signed an executive order to remove the Administrative State. He was defeated on the COVID operation because he was ignorant, not because he was "in on it". Every day you see people wearing masks because they are ignorant. Trump cannot admit defeat, has an oversized ego and it's part of his image.
He never started a new war - that was why he was elected and part of why they needed him out. An estimated 10M people were killed in the wars of the Bushes, Clintons and Obamas. Take your pick of how to murder people.
Restoring freedom of association, secession, and the forging of parallel communities would do it. Of course, any such movement would run up against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Leftists don't believe in leaving people alone.
Righties are collectivist too and though they may leave their own countrymen alone but they will not leave people alone overseas.....they love going overseas, planting the flag, drop some bombs and then open up for business!
That's true enough about the neocons, but they're ex-Trotskyites. The Old Right were a different breed altogether. I consider the Old Right predecessors of today's paleo-libertarians.
Not only that but an alleged virus that was only of consequence to the very elderly and those with multiple serious comorbidities. I now believe that SARS-CoV-2 doesn't exist but a rebrand of influenza-like illnesses, fraudulent PCR tests and the administration of end-of-life pathway to thousands of elderly care home residents created the illusion of a pandemic caused by a novel respiratory pathogen.

Spot on!
If the governments of this world were actual Democracies, we would never see this kind of corruption.
Democracy only exists as a definition unless you are a tribe out in the jungles of forests and it applies only to the people of the tribe?
“Every step…towards…democracy is an advance towards destruction…Liberty has never yet lasted long in a democracy; nor has it ever ended in anything better than despotism.–(1801)” — Fisher Ames, (1758-1808; Congressman from Massachusetts)
When were we ever a Democracy?
"Democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts and murders itself. There was never a democracy that did not commit suicide" ----Letter from John Adams to John Taylor, 17 December 1814
We know however that real democracies end up being mob rule and a disaster, that's why our founding fathers created a Republic.
Democracy, Republic...etc......it is all the same.
Political ideologies matter not, all of them use 'collectivism' and 'enFORCEment' to make people obey, the only difference would be the degrees of brutality by the varied states against the people.
The reality is regardless of the political Ideology it is all 'mind control' (Govern= to control/ Ment, Mental, Mentis= the mind)
And how is that working out for us??
We are much better off with some form of true democracy with oversight of some kind than ever allowing this to happen again.
We are very close to the point of mob rules because of this Republic form of government that is infiltrated with globalists.

Freedom can never be construed as a "System"
If you live in a system you live in a prison.
Term (Time) limit....eh?
Imagine a crook who breaks in your house only has ten minutes to steal not an hour.....The crook is still going to steal, thus term limits will do zilch for the theft and corruption that exist....besides the crooks keep coming from the same place, vote one crook out and vote one crook back in but it is the best system so lets stay with it....right?

We can remove the globalists also…

DJT is just another actor who played the part of President in a two century long running theater play.
They are ALL actors, playing their part.
There is no Deep State, just the State and the State is doing what a State does...... there has been no hiccups in that!
Rob, Murder, Kill, Steal, War, Invade, Bomb, Constant Fear...etc...etc....
DJT did not start a war?
What do you call the War on Covid?
Remember WAR be it a war on drugs, cancer, terrorism, inflation, communism, racism, obesity, covid...etc...etc... is just a war on people.
Correct. Only under radical decentralization can democracy express the will of the people in any meaningful sense.
Sounds like we'll need AI in control for that to happen.
Restoring freedom of association, secession, and the forging of parallel communities would do it. Of course, any such movement would run up against the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Leftists don't believe in leaving people alone.

Very good - hadn't considered that aspect of it.
Fear and propaganda are a positive force. I just never quite got the fear of a "virus" that had a 99 + % of surviving.
Not only that but an alleged virus that was only of consequence to the very elderly and those with multiple serious comorbidities. I now believe that SARS-CoV-2 doesn't exist but a rebrand of influenza-like illnesses, fraudulent PCR tests and the administration of end-of-life pathway to thousands of elderly care home residents created the illusion of a pandemic caused by a novel respiratory pathogen.
