my aunt who never talks about this stuff randomly sent me a link to book The Silent Dominion by D. Cross and just said "read this." no context nothing. i read it in two days and now i understand why she didn't wanna explain over text. the way D. Cross breaks down how systems of control actually operate is insane. not insane like crazy. insane like why doesn't everyone know this

DanielCT 🇷🇴 :

Democracy can be improved with rules. A minimum standard to get the right to candidate should be mandatory. It’s not the voters fault, it’s the state itself.

nothingtodo225 :

it's important to emphasize that Plato is critiquing democracy in Athens. not a republic like the United States or EU countries. he also conveniently advocated for a class of politician to rule over the common man. coincidentally this class of politician were philosophers like him.
