the oblivious who think they are doing anything and so brave and heroic
the parasites who only care about adjusting a number on their tax forms and don't care about anything else
and then there are people who are in on the scam and have everyone else believe it's legit

Exactly, all power is in the hands of the elites. In 2020, authorities around the world took away the goyim's right to move and the right not to be injected with an incomprehensible liquid.

The average citizen values his comfort too much, the risk of going to prison or being tortured very quickly dispels the desire to heroically resist the regime. Revolutions are a sign of a weak, incompetent government. In effective dictatorships, revolution is impossible

Democracy is a scam because no human, including the smartest person alive, can attain full and proper understanding of the multitude of subjects required to make political decisions. The average person is significantly worse in this regard. Naturally, this creates what is essentially a popularity contest, one that has to balance the interests and beliefs of different groups, to gain. In some sense, the rulers can ignore the retarded demands of the masses, but ultimately they have to maintain popularity to get re-elected. This leads to rulers making bad decisions on purpose simply to maintain votes.

This is just discount-tier blackpill LARP.
Yeah, elites have sway. Yeah, politicians are often spineless middlemen. Welcome to reality. But acting like nothing anyone does matters and it's all rigged from top to bottom is just a comfy excuse to sit on your arse and pretend you know some secret truth.
Authoritarian states have oligarchs too, except over there you can’t even complain about it without getting disappeared. Here, people still protest, vote out leaders, leak documents, expose scandals. Doesn’t happen by magic, but it’s possible. You don’t get that in a real oligarchy.
If voting didn’t matter, why do corps, banks, and lobbyists spend billions trying to control the outcome? If the game’s fake, they wouldn’t need to play.
And lol @ pretending democracy causes division. Humans are tribal by default. You don’t need elections to create factions, you need humans. The only reason it feels worse now is because everyone’s doomscrolling 24/7 and confusing Twitter spats with WW3.
Also the Yuri Bezmenov meme again? You realise he was a Cold War asset parroting red scare tropes to boomers, right? Quoting that guy unironically in 2025 is like busting out a PowerPoint about satanic panic. Just because he said “ideological subversion” doesn’t mean he was some prophet.
This whole screed is just terminal cynicism dressed up as insight. You’re not exposing the system. You’re coping with the fact that fixing things takes work.
Touch grass, talk to people, do something useful.

Always was. Politics in general is just a big show, it's people wanting power over others but primarily just to ensure their own well being first above all else, no one out there is doing it to make their town better, let alone the entire country. It's designed to keep you fearful of the law and to keep reassuring you that you will always answer to a higher political authority or an authority of the law. Obey the first, or else you face the latter.

There should be a real meritocratic (as close as realistically possible for such a thing to exist) system, that also forces elites to have skin in the game, and has a pathway for elite circulation with continuity. Something like the Mandarins but they're required to bleed a little to stop them from becoming decadent.

No, it's the natural establishment for discourse in liberty, where social heirarchies are circumstancial and negotiable, but when it's a civic foundation, a governing model superseding liberty, it's mob rule by the threat of majority violence.

Only in democracy does one man think he has right to inform another to support his beliefs as if it's his right to project misunderstanding. Its a false ethic of freedom for slaves, for making servants of their masters.

The issue is that it is that when it is subverted and becomes corrupt it is perhaps the most insidious.
A corrupt dictator or king will simply just make decrees and demand loyalty which is already how they would operate by default. For example Nazism and communism where devout enemies to each other until Hitler and Stalin decided maybe an alliance could work and then back to enemies with the war.
A corrupt democracy is far more evil than an idiot king or a brutal tyrant as they don’t need to hide what they are. In a corrupt democracy officials may simply ignore what the masses voted for, create a coalition of dozens of unpopular parties to barely keep out one clear majority, change the rules of how the system works right in front of the public’s face, or even just rig elections all with the defense of daring to question such behavior meaning you just clearly hate democracy and want a tyrant.

We really don’t have a good fix to this issue. The original solution was to limit it to land owning men so only those with a stake in the area would have a say.
If we tried to go back to that right now then the US electorate would look ridicules as high population states effectively lose all electoral power and suddenly a punch of tiny rural states become power houses.
If we try to do some kind of intelligence based system that is just too easily going to become government preferred answer=smart

Very good. Based Hobbes reference. Absolute God-Like power for the rulers and meted out "rights" for the plebs.

The average person is dumb enough to directly do/think/vote for whatever the TV/media says. We undeniably learned that with Covid. Now who owns the media and chooses what it says?

Except there's idiots everywhere depending on how you measure and on what issue you're talking about. Idiots deciding which group of idiots gets to vote

Just a means of placation
The documented effectiveness of propaganda and the morally-induced willingness to entertain the lowest mental faculty just shovels all power into the hands of the largest voice, while convincing an idiot majority it was their own decision.

Raw democracy? Yeah. A democratic republic works among white men of good standing but breaks down when you started importing niggers, jews, and spics. The founders understood this which is why it took until 1968 for non-whites to start being let into the country.

Of course it is. All true political power lies far outside the political system, in the realms of the financialized capital and the big computers. You are a middle class commoner, you have no political power at all. To remind you of that fact, you are forced to participate in so-called "elections", mass rituals where all the commoners symbolically surrender their personal rights and freedoms to a pre-selected "president" who then robs them blind. You feel guilty when you miss the ritual. Your fellow middle class commoners call you stupid for missing the ritual and warn you that Hitler and his Wehrmacht rise from their graves like Jesus when you miss the ritual. The ritual is very important. Don't miss the ritual. You need to defend democracy against Hitler and his Wehrmacht.
