We are being promised an end to non-existent lynchings and to equally non-existent non-consensual gender surgeries precisely because no politician is remotely interested in giving us anything that we actually want.
And that’s not because it’s hard to give us what we want. Some of the most pressing issues of the moment are exceptionally easy to solve. I already explained this in what concerns border issues, and won’t repeat but it’s mostly all like that. An easy fix.
But nobody will bother to do any of it because we have become unnecessary. We aren’t a source of legitimacy. We are annoying whiners who get in the way. We have collectively eagerly embraced that role and have nobody to blame.
I don’t know if you follow Mike Benz on Twitter but he said that the elites have redefined “democracy” to mean “democratic INSTITUTIONS” so things like voting and free speech of the masses are dangerous if they threaten those INSTITUTIONS. So yes we are irrelevant bc we get in the way of their democracy which is really more of an oligarchy of multinational corporations, defense contractors, financial firms, CIA, CFR, Atlantic Council etc.
Brazilian and our free speech needs to be silenced so the pesky populist can’t influence others.

Oh, yay. We’ve reached the part of the curve where the institutions have inevitably stopped serving their intended purpose and now serve only the interests of the institution. The only thing left now is to scrap them and start over.

That’s exactly how it is. This is the dismantling of the nation-state that I’ve been warning about for over a decade. It’s here, it’s happening right now. And nobody seems to care much.
