So much focus is placed on the "political process" and "If only we could get our guy in there!" Yet increasingly it is becoming obvious that these are false processes. Government of the people, by the people. Consent of the governed. Don't we throw those around a lot? If the people are despotic, are we surprised that the government that is elected is as well? As long as it is my guy that is doing the looting, killing, destroying of them then everything is ok, but hey, don't loot, kill, or destroy me! So many of us readily endorse all sorts of demonic policies, especially if we can directly take credit for supporting them. As a people, we have been thoroughly deceived by the cunning and craftiness of the evil one. We no longer care about the difference between law and legislation. We don't care about the destruction of those around us for power and prestige. We don't recognize liberty or freedom; we don't even conceptually know what they are. And many of those that superficially spout laudatory accolades to the concepts of agency and liberty also deeply espouse and promote policies and actions that are absolutely antithetical to the ends they proclaim to hold. Educating ourselves, and then others; learning truth and passing it on – this is the only way we can achieve peace and prosperity, not the corruption that is modern politics.
