I hate democracy. It produces political farce and incompetent leaders and bad decisions.

That's like hating a chicken because it can't juggle.

The whole point of democracy is to take people obsessed with power then force them to spend their lives eating bad local food and talking to the most annoying people in every city for an okay chance of getting an official political post.

Once they're elected. We trash them so perpetually and so ignorantly that perfect mutual hatred develops. Then we throw them out like a dead pet we'd grown bored of.

Why is this a good political system? Because it means no one smart and dynamic enough to subvert the system can ever seize enough power to accomplish anything!

Democracy is the discovery that instead of having a glorious evil government you can just have a dumbshit government!

We should celebrate this! By god, every shit-for-brains statement made from a podium by a smart person who knows better is to me like the caw of an eagle circling the statue of liberty!

I've never felt so patriotic.
