1. Kings, Warlords & Theocrats Have a Place in Russia, Right, Hartmann?

2. The Enlightenment happened.

Our government is based on Enlightenment thinking. The success of that conceptual government changed the basic idea of governance worldwide. The Genie is out of the bottle. Nobody wants to live under such a system again. And no matter how much a tiny fraction of the population might want to sit atop the rest of us, there will be fierce resistence.

There are over seven billion of us. How many bullets do they have?

I hope the United States continues to prove that a strong people don't need a strong leader, and remain free. But, if not us, someone will carry the world into the future.

4. There are monstrously rich Americans who have destroyed our democracy and they still want more

They want a feudal system where they can control the masses. They don't want everyone to vote. They don't want a middle class. They don't want fairness and equality. They are greedy little psychopaths who happen to win the lucky sperm lottery. They have turned American society into a reflection of their hideous psychological dysfunction.

America has already moved into a post-democratic society. We are no longer rule by laws or the majority. We are ruled by a handful of psychopathic billionaires, their whims are our laws and they are coming for everything you hold dear.
