Politics (Global):
I haven't written a blog in a long time. But the blogs listed below are timeless. Just because they are a few years old doesn't mean they are out of date!!! The fake democracy political systems in place around the world are still oppressive towards the citizens. The message is still relevant today as it was a few years ago. The 99% must start to consider changing the design of the political system to one of a true democracy. A truly democractic revolution is the only way for that change to come about. For that to happen the 99% must become active and THINKING citizens. Hopefully the blogs listed below will encourage you to QUESTION.
Politics & Democracy 1.0 (Global)
01 Democracy - Not Really
Looks at our present versions of democracy and shows that it really isn't a true form of democracy. It is only a facade of one. It is a democracy in name only. We take for granted that the political system we were raised in is the only viable method of organising citizens. If you begin to question the political system itself (I mean the DESIGN of the political system itself) you will see that it is NOT democratic. view full article
02 The Egyptian Revolution - What A Negative Success NOT only relevant for Egyptians
The Egyptians showed great bravery standing up to Mubarak's thugs but made a grave error in only expecting, and only asking for, a similar version of democracy which we have in the West. This was asking for a political system that is NOT a true democracy. view full article
03 Why Politicians Always Kick Problems Down The Road
Because of the way our so-called democracies are organised (the design of the political system) it is more convenient for politicians - temporary politicians - to think of short term solutions rather than long-term ones. They make decisions which suit them, and the Establishment, but it is the citizens who have to pay the long term price for those stupid and incompetent decisions. It is the most stupid method of organising a Nation as you could imagine and it actually guarantees failure after failure. view full article
04 The Occupy Wall Street Should Be A Whirlwind - Not A Sigh
There is no point in having a political or citizen movement which doesn't have specific goals, the simple reason being: how can you succeed, or demand anything, if there are no specific demands in the first place. Occupy Wall Street should concentrate on one goal - changing the political system to true Democracy 1.0. view full article
05 The Flaw Of The Glass–Steagall Act In A Pseudo-Democracy
There is no point in wishing for a new Glass–Steagall Act to limit the abuse by the financial institutions who misuse citizens' savings within the present so-called democratic political system in the USA. If it works the bankers who own the politicians will make sure it is watered down and gradually trashed as on the last occasion. The USA needs a political system where the politicians cannot change laws whenever it suits the bankers. view full article
06 Rename The Patriot Act
Politicians (and Financial Institutions) love to use 1984-speak big lies to cover their, in many cases, illegal behaviour and their blatant disregard for citizens rights. The Patriot Act is one very good example. This Act in effect justifies the removal of the rights of each and every American citizen and it is disguised as being in the citizens' best interest - for their protection. It is the Big Lie, for it is an Act bringing in a repressive Police State and is a threat to every citizen in the USA. view full article
07 Understand And Use Elections Wisely In A Sham Democracy *** VERY IMPORTANT ***
Original title (Start The US Revolution With A Pencil On Election Day 2012)
I propose that each and every citizen who isn't happy with the candidates, and their political system, and who would normally stay at home and ignore the (Presidential, or General, Election to come out and USE their vote by entering an alternative candidate such as “I Reject This System” in the write-in candidate section of the ballot paper. This is the only method they have of using the vote while not participating in the usual pointless process of electing their next persecutor. This is the ONLY method within the Feudal Democratic system we are burdened with at present by which the citizens can actually have a real say.
I give examples of election results in the USA, Egypt and Ireland to demonstrate just how powerful the citizens COULD be if they used their vote wisely. If the American citizens were wise enough they could create the greatest upheaval in voting history around the world. Unfortunately I presume they will remain blind, just like the Irish in the last General Election, and the Egyptians in the Presidential Election, and be totally unable to see the incredible opportunities in THEIR HANDS to publically reject the system. view full article
08 Why We Should Not Be Satisfied With Promises Of More Open Government
Many groups are beginning to awaken to the fact that, politically, they have no real say at all and that Government secrecy is denying the citizens their right to know what decisions are being made for which they will have to pay in the future. Some call for more open government not realising the simple flaw in the Feudal democratic system they suffer under, and that is, that these promises of more open government, even if they were implemented, would only ever be temporary because you can bet your bottom dollar that the next government or President will decide to revoke these new features. Nothing less than a true democracy can GUARANTEE permanent open government - not at the whim of a politician, but because it is an intrinsic aspect of the democratic process itself. view full article
09 Skirmishes Will Not Win The War
The reason why citizens (the 99.9%) are controlled by the few (the 0.1%) is because the multitudes are not targeting the real causes of the dysfunctional nature of our political system. Unless and until the citizens realise that the system itself - THE SYSTEM ITSELF - must be changed, there will be no positive future for them. In Ireland most citizens only ever think about is their own personal, or at best, local problems and 'demand' that they be changed. Unfortunately they are too stupid and blinkered to realise that when the system is changed, to one of democracy, then and only then should they seek an improvement in personal or local problems. CITIZENS WHO THINK AND AIM SMALL WILL ONLY EVER ACHIEVE SMALL THINGS, if they are successful at all. The only real target for change should be the political system itself - that's the war. You may win all the skirmishes you could imagine but if you don't win the war you will still remain serfs in your own Nation. view full article
10 The Farce Of Elections And Democracy
We are told that we, the citizens, own the political system yet we are never allowed to actually hold that power but are forced, by the feudal constitutions, to always transfer that power and authority to one politician after another, each one misusing that same authority. We are in a situation which is so absurd it is similar to a millionaire who has a million dollars in the bank but is never allowed to take it out and in the meantime is becoming more in debt because those same banks are charging for storing the million dollars. Strange but true - in our case! view full article
11 Why Revolutions Go Wrong NOT just for Egyptians
Usually protesters and freedom fighters concentrate on removing the tyrant or colonial force and don't give any thought to what will fill the void. Usually a dictatorship fills this vacancy. It has happened throughout history and we have all seen it in Egypt. Removing Morsi will not improve the situation in Egypt unless the protesters realise that the real battle is for the ownership of the Constitution. There are 2 Articles which the protesters MUST demand are added to the Constitution to have any hope for a democracy in the future. view full article
12 Political Parties Destroy Democracy THIS blog is very important!
Although I have a chapter on Political Parties in the Feudal Democracy Section of this site I decided to create a blog listing the reasons why political parties destroy democracy and giving short examples of each of the reasons. It is a lot shorter than the chapter which most people, for some unknown reason, do not want to fully read. view full article
13 Feudal Democracy Divides And Conquers Citizens
Feudal-Democracy encourages and even forces citizens to think and act like peasants, each fighting the other citizens for the scraps thrown from the feudal lord's table. It encourages the citizens to concentrate only on what they can individually get out of the system. A divided citizenry can be easily controlled and manipulated. view full article
14 Hierarchical Politics Guarantees Subjugation
Many people have the attitude that a different political party will improve the quality of democracy. Few rarely question the political system itself. Thus election after election the citizens are disappointed and the system grinds on. The hierarchical nature of our political system is the problem - it must go! view full article
15 Understanding The Term ‘Changing The Political System’
I have often used the term ‘We Must Change The Political System’ and have come to realise that most people interpret this phrase very differently than I do. The problem is caused by the different attitudes people have depending on whether they are thinking INSIDE the box or OUTSIDE the box. This blog should hopefully clear up come of the confusion. view full article
16 Why Some Nations Are In Decline
The main reason why some nations are in decline, the USA for example, is because Feudal Democracy is inherently unstable and dysfunctional, because there is no braking system to stop it going out of control. In a true Democracy the braking system would be the citizens' control of the politicians and the monopolies - they would prevent reckless decisions. view full article
17 Election Results In A Feudal Democracy
If we are ever to break from the bonds of servitude we need to become aware of how elections within a Feudal Democracy are a farce. Most of the time the people who are elected do not have the support of the majority but merely were the least worse choice of the citizens who bothered to go out and vote. This means continued disappointment for citizens - government after government. Morsi in Egypt is a prime example. He tried to force through a Constitution which was HIS and HIS political party's (Muslim Brotherhood) Islamic religious policies - AGAINST the will of the people. This is a major flaw of Feudal Democracy. view full article
18 Global Big Brother
Presidents come and go. Politicians come and go. Governments come and go. Those who hold the real political power are the ruling feudal elite - the corporations, financial institutions, the military industrial complex and the security agencies. THESE hold the real political power. For the most part they control who gets elected via their funding and bribery. Now they need to control each and every citizen to prevent any uprising which may change a political system - I describe as Feudal Democracy - which suits them perfectly. They have set up a surveillance system which WILL become global - for their aim is to control citizens on a global level. Most of the governments are already under their financial control - it is the governments who vie with each other to entice the global corporations to set up in their country which give enormous power to those corporations - they dictate TO governments and in most cases are NOT regulated BY governments. view full article
23 Start The Revolution At The Ballot Box
All around the world citizens are told they live in a Democracy. THIS IS A LIE. They live as serfs in a Feudal Democracy. The citizens for the most part are utterly powerless. The ballot box is the ONLY powerful method by which the citizens can have a voice and can say to the politicians - I Reject This System - and start the revolution towards having a true democratic system in their country. This is a battle for who controls the political power of the nation. The battle starts with the citizens rejecting the system. (This should be read together with the blog No 07.
Presidents come and go. Politicians come and go. Governments come and go. The political system remains and those who hold the real political power (The Establishment) are the ruling feudal elite - the corporations, financial institutions, the military industrial complex and the security agencies. THESE groups hold the real permanent political power. For the most part they control who gets elected via their funding and bribery. The political system needs to be changed so that it is the citizens who are in control. To achieve that the citizens must start the revolution at the ballot box. view full article
24 Fundamentals Of Democracy 1.0
It is sickening to hear phrases like “The USA is less democratic now”, demonstrating that the person has a total lack of understanding of what democracy should be. Most citizens around the world believe the propaganda that they live in a democracy. I hope to show in this article that democracy is about citizen self rule and in that case there are no democracies in existence.
I include images of both feudal-democracy and Democracy 1.0 political systems contrasting how little control the citizens have in a feudal democracy with how much control they COULD have in a true Democracy 1.0. The first step towards democracy is realising that you live in a feudal democracy - a SHAM DEMOCRACY (#ShamDemocracy). Then start to think the impossible (it's only impossible because citizens still refuse to think beyond their norm) - think true Democracy 1.0. view full article
25 The Pros And Cons Of Protesting
Protests are taking place around the world. Citizens are voicing their opinion. However, it doesn't seem to have entered their consciousness that these protests are a waste of time. These protests do not signify a democratic system, despite the attitude that protests are ‘democracy in action’, or ‘the power of the people’. It is the EXACT OPPOSITE - it truly demonstrates just how powerless the citizens are in a Sham Democracy. Protesting may make those involved in the protest contented merely by the act of protesting but rarely is there any permanently positive result. In many cases it is protesting merely for protesting sake.view full article
Politics & Democracy 1.0 - Ireland
ALL Irish people should also read the blogs and articles in the Global Section above which is more important as it covers the political system mistakenly described as Democracy. Ireland is NOT the only nation with a dysfunctional #ShamDemocracy political system (aka #FeudalDemocracy).
19 eVoting Machines - A Failed Attempt At Skulduggery?
There could be ulterior motives as to why an Irish political party - Fianna Fáil - wanted to introduce eVoting machines (electronic computerised voting machines), especially when there were security flaws in those machines. It is not the first time that Fianna Fáil have tried to win elections in an unfair manner.
20 Constitutional Convention - More De-mockery Than Democracy
The present (2012) Government in Ireland is promising a Constitutional Convention but plan to make sure that there are no changes which may lessen their power in any manner whatsoever. It is just a white wash to fool the citizens and keep them quiet. Real political reform can only come via the citizens.
21 Bertie Ahern To Get Pension Increase Soon
Because of a fundamental flaw in our political system Fianna Fáil will be back in Government soon (they are already topping the latest polls) and they will begin the abuse of the Public Funds yet again. As a result Bertie Ahern, the man who oversaw the destruction and ruination of this Nation will end up getting an increase in his pension.
22 Why I Paid The Property Tax
Because of the banking bailout a new property tax has been introduced into Ireland. Some citizens have set up protest groups and are refusing to pay the tax. My point is that the property tax itself is not important. If the system is unjust, as it is, then the citizens have a right to change the system but don't have a right to pick and choose which taxes they will and will not pay.
