I am happy that I lived in the 2 centuries that actually embraced democracy. Before it was kings, dukes, bishops and popes, After it will be CEOs and Shareholders

Looks like the majority of people just want to be ruled so they don't have to think themselves and always have someone they can blame for their misery.

@heiglandreas

It's true that there's been many social improvements over course of the last century, but the trajectory over centuries has been to the detriment of dictators.

I don't think ppl want to be ruled so much as we just keep making the mistake of letting dictators take control before knocking them down and restoring order again.

@BrianJopek

@ReggieHere @BrianJopek Dictators can only take control when the majority doesn't object.

Most people don't want to have to think about politics. They just want to live in a place where their basic requirements function without having to kick out a wannabe dictator who tries to make a power grab every so often
