“8. Majorities don’t matter.

Unfortunately for those dreaming of harnessing a majority anti-woke popular will, the truth is that, as statistician and philosopher Nassim Taleb has explained in detail, it’s typically not the majority that sets new societal rules, but the most intolerant minority. “


The GeriatriCons on FR don’t want to hear about this either. They are still clinging to ‘muh Constitutional Conservatism. Regardless of how much it fails and loses.

All societies are ruled by Elites. Popular Sovereignty is a lie.

All Democracies and Republics are fake, and disguised Oligarchies.

Just as all Monarchies, Empires and even Dictatorships are fake, and disguised Oligarchies.

You are going to be ruled by an Oligarchy. Pray that it will be a God-fearing one.

Every “successful” revolution is simply an exchange of oligarchic rule.
Including American revolution. In the case of US, the elites were benevolent, defended individual rights from government, and realized that the Christian moral consensus was necessary for the republic and constitution to work for society.
In most cases, oligarchs simply replace each other and install their particular brand of despotism.
