Just a note on ToT, plus a cool poll

<< < (2/4) > >>

Bananas:
+1 to illuminatic, hitting the nail on the head.

Well the US is actually a Republic.  Democracy is the equivalent to asking 2 wolves and 1 sheep "whats for dinner?"

I mean I think it's natural to have discussions about the true people that are pulling the strings in the world, not these bullshit empty suit politicians.  How someone gets caught up in the right / left paradigm in this day and age is beyond me.  A lot of people talk about it like they talk about sports, complete with their favorite teams and players.  Pretty lame in my opinion.

It is now in the open who the ruling elite are.  You can call them the Illuminati, the NWO, The Bilderbergers, etc. The true wealthy people that don't land in the Forbes 500 lists because
1) they blow all those names out of the water when it comes to wealth and land ownership in the world
2)they don't want the publicity and focus on themselves, they want it on their henchmen doing their bidding in the government and media.  They truly operate in the shadows.

So MDogg, if you want more discussions about Rachel Maddows or Jon Stewarts officially dictated talking points then by all means get those threads poppin.  Don't be mad cause other people discuss concepts outside of your paradigm.  But I'm glad to take some credit for these movements on ToT and am honored that you acknowledge it so frequently.

Peace

Democracy is not the end all of our problems. Democracy can do nothing for the world if there are no enlightened people to use it.

This is why it is necessary for an enlightened cabal to guide the masses in the best long term interests of humanity.

I think we ought to just enlighten the masses and let everyone be equal.  Humanity will go forward from there.

Exactly. People are too stupid or lazy to figure out the truth for themselves, so they believe anything the media tells them. The powers that be use this to put people in a feel good vs. absolute chaos choice. You have to choose either A or B, Republican or Democrat, etc. Once they reduce everything to the least amount of choices, they make sure that the result will benefit them either way. Big businesses in the USA are more involved in politics then all of the citizens combined.

Teddy Roosevelt:
As for the poll, I'd say it's a mix between Democracy, and once it fails I like to say, "I told you so" and Dictatorship, president has too much power, I miss 1889.
