UK Politics Thread X: Boris' Big Bonkers Brexit Bash

[North German Realm]

I love that a discussion about the non-democratic appointing of the current British Prime Ministry, the last in a series of similarly non-democratic events that a large plurality if not an outright majority opposes publicly has turned into a echo-chamber ranting about muh "Democrazy".

[Hamstan]

Your Empire is gone. Right now, your country is trying failing to hold on to what shaky ground it has left. The Empire defined your country and the world, and when the fires of war destroyed it, so too was the old world forever vanquished.

Nobody cares dude, we're trying to be a mid-level power with decent living standards and fighting off the subversive, insincere and manipulative, dystopian influence of The Marxists/The Rich/Both/Neither.

(But secretly it's both.).

I know that, you're in the same boat as everyone else in the west. What I'm saying is you lost your national identity, and it's hard to maintain a nation without one.

This isn't democracy. It is only the inevitable result of democracy

[Kowani]

asabiyyah (other spelling was the word in bm oops) isnt about islamism actually

So alternative B: You have become senile and started to have Malay words randomly inserted into your speech.

It’s the same thing that Kekistsn guy uses.

Abandoning East of Suez was a horrid, horrid mistake but hey whatever floats your boat in 2019 Brexit partyists.

So, the inevitable result of democracy is... not being democratic? Uh, no.

And so now begins the creation of the Anglo Alliance. Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are invited. Common defense, free trade, freedom of movement, and a common currency adopted gradually (first US and Canada, Australia and New Zealand, etc.).

Ireland joining would be a fair compromise to the hard border, so they are invited too.

As a compromise, the capital should be Toronto.

Things don't last forever. Power gets centralized, authority becomes unquestionable, good intentions become tainted, and organizations become corrupt. Democracy is not invincible. Over time, all democracies are corrupted to the point where calling them a democracy is ludicrous.

That's irrelevant though. The reason democratic countries end authoritarian is because they abandon their democratic tradition for various reasons. Democracy can be maintained -to a point, at least- if democratic tradition is maintained.

Also, let's be honest, we're just better than Europe.

And who is to say it will be? They are already censoring media in the name of "morality" now. What's next?

1- That's something that's been happening -all over the world- for centuries. If you're opposing this now, it's just that you oppose the """morality""" that is maintained now, not the act of censorship itself
2- That's irrelevant to the democratic process and "Democratic tradition" as a concept.

Fantastic, not a single correct word in that statement.

Democracy without freedom of thought is useless.

You're free to think and to act. You're just not given a government-sanctioned platforms for "non-conformist" opinions, which is -while ridiculous to a point- something that's been around as long as democracy has.

Do you see why I dislike democracy?
