The problem is that humans are the representatives, and they represent their interests first and foremost. You could get A.I. as our overlords, but they will represent the interests of those that program them. If that day ever arrives, I'm investing in Pepsico and Frito-Lays

It ends the same way. An authoritarian dictatorship of a small group that seizes total political power. It always ends this way, and no amount of people power will change that

Let's hear what a bunch of leftists who think that you can have a functional democracy when everyone thinks exactly the way they do lecture everyone on why political extremisn is a good idea,then start crying when they realize that the only way they can achieve their political paradise is for them to act like the very nazis they claim to despise

That's the problem with both religion and politics. If you think you're right and everyone else is wrong, you can't help but to I fringe on other people's right to practice. That's why anyone that thinks a leftist government can be a democracy with opposition political parties is at best wrong

Actually, no you can't. What you are doing is substituting your political beliefs for your religious ones, and that at its core is what separates a facist from any other political belief system

When you treat your political affiliation like a religion, everyone who doesn't agree with you sounds like a heretic

The leftists should just stop pretending, write a Bible, and start worshipping whoever tells them they are special

When politics becomes a religion, the answer is no

You are correct, which means if someone bothered to write down the details of a famine, it was either really, really bad, or someone was trying to smear the reputation of a monarch

That's probably why being a crown prince in medieval times was more hazardous than a bering strait crab fisherman running for president of the United States
