    Maybe it's brainwormed of me but I regularly think about how at this stage I'd rather live in a blatant Autocracy/Feudal system rather than have all this fart sniffing pretense about tHe SaNcTiTy Of DeMoCrAcY. Sick of being pissed on and told it's raining.

    Obviously I'd much rather a dictatorship of the proletariat to any of this shit but still lmao

      I kinda get the feeling. Like I'd prefer someone stabbing me in the gut with a scowl on their face than someone who smiles and stabs me in the back.

      The only difference between our current system and mask-off feudalism/monarchy is that right now most people are brainwashed into believing they live in a democracy. So honestly it would only be a good thing
