@FlyingSquid I'm not saying 1 isn't worse than the other.

I'm saying you don't allow mobarchy *of any kind* to rule.

How can that be difficult to understand?

The goal must be to have intelligent considered-reason, objectivity, & sanity/wisdom rule.

Neither side wants that.

They want their-reactions to be ruling.

One of the people from the NYT, I think it was, admitted that the NYT & CNN "shut down" the progressive issues & the progressive voices.

That isn't journalism, that isn't democracy, that is bullshit propaganda-enforcement *gaslighting* as being "journalism".

I'm saying, specifically, that the *displacement* of journalism by the NYT & CNN is going to bit their faction in the ass,
when the "acceptable" to them Biden institution doesn't have the traction to win 2024.

And they are going to not-accept any responsibility, of course, for their part in preventing reality from having any chance in that election.

US Civil War Part2 is going to happen.

Power divorced from accountability, which describes both sides, or all sides, .. has consequences.

And 1 of those consequences, in the long term, is destruction of the allowed-to-completely-corrupt country.

There was a guy, Glubb, iirc, who realized that empires always die around 2.5 centuries old.

the Roman Empire, the British Empire, the Catholic Empire .. did it follow the pattern?

Anyways, there is a book "How To Hide An Empire" on the US Empire, and all the bullshit done to hide what it actually is...

It's time is done.

It's a natural process.

The original ruling-class has their identity,
the empire's population changes, as empire-populations must do,
the ruling-class's identity mismatches, more & more & more, the reality of the empire,
then the ruling-class has a kind of conniption trying to "reestablish" their "rightful" rule, but the entire context has changed, but their identity rejects the evidence...

... and you get narcissistic lashing-out, you get genociding, you get ultra-unstoppable corruption, you get criminality, you get authority gaslighting everywhere, you get legalism highjacking "justice", you get .. *disintegration*.

There is a limit on how long an empire can live.

The US's limit has been hit.

While it is theoretically-possible for the US to *adapt & transform*, .. the odds of that happening are .. oh, zillion:1 against?

something like that.

You can't have Justice without accountability.

You can't have Right without Integrity.

You can't have a competent citizenry without citizens being *made* competent ( proper education ) in journalism, in critical-reasoning, etc...

None of the prerequisites are in-place.

That the right, throughout the world, wants to eradicate education, speaks immensely about its real design: it wants people only animal-reacting.

That the left, however, treats working-class people contemptuously, so that education is for the *middle* class's becoming managers, but the *working* class are the middle-class's inferiors...

it's galling.

it's insulting.

it's class-narcissism.

That isn't education, that is "education", with the falsifying-quotes on it.

Everything's been corrupted, every system, every rule, every law, everything of our civilization has been corrupted somehow, some way,
and people insist that one has to "make do with the corrupt-system, and act only within its process"...

and somehow un-corrupt things??

I've been gaslit enough.

Breaking the dishonesty from all dimensions of civilization, all at once, is required for humankind's surviving of The Great Filter.

If humankind won't?

Then Universe will carve our extinguishment as a warning to *intelligent* species who evolve in this galaxy.

Universe can't care.

Political-motivation, *itself*, is corrupt.

Only objectivity can survive this century.

But humankind has no need to survive, at all, right?

Ignorance-indulging can be "a statement" that humankind makes, right?

---

Anybody who says that the corruption of the left or the corruption of the right MUST be accepted, is full of it.

Corruption doesn't need to be accepted.

Integrity is a possible alternative.

Mobarchy, whether left or right, whether mild or vicious, is still mobarchy.

Fuck mobarchy.

Rule of Considered-Reason, Objectivity, Right-Values, Wisdom, Sane-Strategy, Living World, etc.

That is proper.
