Democratic society ----always wrong .

[china]

We have this absurd notion in our 'democratic' society that the majority of the people are always right. Everything in society is ultimately judged by how many people adhere to, support, or belong to a particular idea or movement. Hence the talks are adjudged a 'failure' (as well as the man who delivered them) because of the small number who have taken them up.
The reverse is actually true. It is the minority that has always been shown to be right - history has demonstrated it, time
and time again. All change has always started with one person. The majority is, in fact, always wrong.

The majority is always wrong ..............all you have to do is observe -anywhere-even in the forums .

Would be nice to see an example seeming the forum was mentioned.
I do agree tho, a miss informed 'majority' cannot be right, nor if it has that mob mentality where they just follow the flow and never think for themselves.

Sheep! People are like sheep. Religion and politics are one and the same mentality. Propaganda sells better than facts. Very few people are actually informed because it requires effort. People would rather be told what to think, how to feel, what their opinions are. It is a frightening world out there when you think about it. It is being run by mental midgets and retarded adolescents.

Sir Winston Churchill said (and I may be paraphrasing) that Democracy is the worst form of idealogy and Government, except for all the others.

My opinion is that the people who run the system are broken

People in general are broken. We live in a society that is ruled by the ego. In tribal societies, the initiation process was designed to kill the childhood ego so that the person could be reborn to their adult responsibilities in that society. In our society we have no such process. The ego rules our lives and most people never reach a state of emotional or spiritual maturity higher than age 12.

So, the world is being run by retarded adolescents with bloody big guns. Makes you want to run out and vote, don't it?

That's incorrect, the majority is not always wrong. It is only a matter of imparted awareness which has been the crux of the struggle for millenia. All you have to do to ensure the continued wrongness of the majority is to control thier education accross the board as closely as possible, they will most often be misinformed and therefore wrong. An included and informed majority would most often be right. Your sloppy attempt to belittle the commons is a classic device of the privilaged who if you must know are the ones who are always wrong. We will soon see the majority democraticaly put the lie to your statement. Always is a long time China and there are many in the majority right enough to be alive and thinking and that's not a poor result in a confusing world they did not design. To maintain the ignorance of the majority is very expensive, the bankrupt can't do that well, hence the Fema camps and tazer toting fuzz and all the evaporateing civil and legal rights.
Contempt for your fellow man (if they are your fellows) will get you nothing, it is your duty as an enlightened being to share the word not to judge from on high, that's my job.:smile:
