We want a real democracy, don't you?

"Hah, what luck, Fascism you can vote for. Isn't that sweet" - Stone Sour, Omega

This is representational democracy, and this is why it's wrong. We think we're free, we're told we're free. That we have every right in the world, and that by voting for people we seize control over what happens to us.

But that's a lie.

Once we elect the body of people that govern us, we lose all say in enacted policies for the next four years. Or even on a local scale, you elect a representative because they agree with you on an issue you feel really strongly about, say, education. But what you didn't know was that although they care a little about that issue, they care more about... I don't know, banning abortion. You're pro-choice, so you're outraged that this person "betrayed" your vote, so next time round you vote for the other person who happens to be pro-choice, but they're also anti-education. So they undo all the work the person before them did. So now you're right back where you started, and the cycle repeats itself ad infinitum.

It's time to BREAK the cycle.

They have us right where they want us. nothing ever changing, no revolutions, no changes in classes. The vague-left and vague-right parties are so similar nowadays there is seriously no way anything can ever change, for better or worse. Especially for better, because then they (the rich) would have no power any more.

They give us the illusion we're free and we swallow it like a pill because we crave so much for it to be true. We desire freedom, we, like all animals weren't born to live in a cage. Although as we put other animals in cages i suppose it's fitting that we put ourselves in one like we have too. The universe has a very wise sense of humour, and poetic justice.

But both of those situations are inhumane. We shouldn't put animals in cages because it's wrong, and the rich shouldn't keep the poor in a perpetual loop of mediocrity because IT'S WRONG!

We all deserve better, Mother Earth deserves a better version of humanity than it has now, or none at all. It's time we reclaim our wings and be free.

To be free we must shrug off the ruling class. Even if they're elected, or an old-communist state, they're STILL a ruling class. The word democracy means "people rule". And the people should rule, themselves. Voting for what they believe directly, not through some lying politician. TRUE democracy is what we need.

But like all perfect ideas there are setbacks. people at the moment are so affected by capitalism that all they'd agree on is lower taxes and cheaper petrol, more oil and all that crap. So to my deepest fucking regret the majority of people need to be educated about what's important before they can be entrusted with their own fucking futures. What a fucking disgrace we are, we're like two year olds. Sickening.

But that's what's going to happen.

Eden will be reborn, and it will be a free Eden.

"to be free, one must give up part of oneself" - Hedwig

In our case the part we must give up is the blackness that we have inside of us.
