I agree. I know here in the US, we basically have a choice between two different parties, the independent parties are not normally strong enough to really be contenders for most powerful offices. Both parties seem to be dominated by people with extreme views either on the left or right. Yet, most people probably don't share extreme views to the left or right, and thus find themselves (or at least I do) picking the party or politician that is the most tolerable.

The closest thing We have to freedom, is a Representative Republic. Those, who have been "selected" to serve, in far too many cases, were nothing but shills for the Banksters....

The reason: These PIRATES, who use admiralty law(Ever notice the US Flag with the Gold Fringes), to commit FRAUD against We, the People, who were ONLY EVER TO BE RULED BY COMMON LAW. The LAWLESS 14th Amendment, LAWLESSLY "created" a new class, the "US CITIZEN", in direct contradiction, to what the Constitution had provided. So many "acts", and "amendments", that have GROSSLY INSUFFICIENT CONSTITUTIONAL BACKING, are now considered status quo, that the UNITED STATES SERVICE CORPORATION, IS DE FACTO. What is it called, when you tell half-truths, or deceptions, and it costs someone else, their money?? FRAUD. What is it, when you tell half-truths, or deceptions, and it costs someone else, their life? MURDER. Guess what? The UNITED STATES SERVICE CORPORATION(aka, "the Federal Government") is committing both CRIMES, EVERY DAY. IF WE HAD LAWFUL, CONSTITUTIONAL OATH-BEARING SHERIFFS, WE COULD HAUL EACH AND EVERY OFFICER, OF THE UNITED STATES SERVICE CORPORATION, WHICH IS CHARTERLESS, DUE TO ABUSE OF THE FRANCHISE, INTO COMMON LAW COURT, AND CONVICT THEM ALL, FOR BOTH FRAUD, AND MURDER. TRESPASS. These "Officers", of the UNITED STATES SERVICE CORPORATION, need to be hauled into Common Law Courts, and held liable for the Fraud, and Trespass, they have performed, upon State Nationals, of the Geographic location, known as The United States of America. US CITIZENS, are RULED, by the USC, the UCC, and the CFR. Unless you are a physical RESIDENT of Washington, D.C., OR, are a Public Servant, YOU ARE NOT A US CITIZEN, and thank the Maker you aren't, because US CITIZENS, do NOT ENJOY the Protection of Natural Law(INALIENABLE) Rights, that the Constitution of the United States of America, was Crafted to give.

When Western civilization was built from Greco-Roman and Jewish values, or more precisely Hellenized Galilean Jewish values, Helleno-Judean values (the Northern Galilee of Israel is where Jesus is from and was a very Hellenized place, meaning it had much influence from Greco-Roman culture as well), then of course when we move away from these values and don't study them, we'll fall. Notice how after the dark ages, the Western and Northern Europeans re-adopted Hellenized Galilean values in a renaissance more so than Southern Europe and Southeastern Europe where that culture is more originally from? Likewise, I'm seeing many East Asian nations studying Western classics, learning Latin, studying the Jewish Talmud in their schools, etc. This is a shift of civilization towards East Asia, where they will carry on the legacy and teachings of the Western Helleno-Judean values that defined the West.

That’s because these patterns are cyclical. Basically every society goes four cycles or turnings between crises and prosperity before repeating another cycle. The whole process is about 80 to 90 years, and then it repeats. I don’t remember if it was Aristotle or Plato that originally outlined the concept, but the late 90’s book “The fourth turning” goes into much more detail and actually predicts martial law after a pandemic, a terrorist attack to make us go to the Middle East, and several several other global agenda items. The idea starts out with a hero generation facing a crises period until they overcome the crises to create good times. The good times Spoil the youth generation so they rebel. This spoiled rebel artists generation typically does a worse job at raising there kids so you end up with social change and then the Gen X types who are more individualistic and self reliant. Political problems start to then emerge with individualism leading to more extreme and divisive Political views and growing partisanship. In American history we become the most libertarian during these periods. We either want to be more isolationist or some states or colonies start to propose declaring independence. Then some series of events unfold that lead to a war or another crisis. In US history you had the revolutionary war, the civil war, World War II, and what ever were living thru now. After the conflict starts the new hero generation steps up to handle the crisis before establishing a new good times period of prosperity. The total multi generational cycle is around 80 to 90 years and repeats because people repeat patters that they haven’t ever lived through. In Ray Dalio’s book he takes the argument one step farther and describes how the dominant world powers rise and fall over several hundred years as part of a larger cycle with multi shorter 80 year cycles within. In Ray Kurzweil’s singularity is near book he gives one long cycle for the evolution of life, dna, intelligence, technology, and then a technological singularity. Each epoch of complexity creates the next. On the one hand we are on the verge of both internal civi1 w@rs and possibly international conflicts between major nuclear powers. But at the same time we are possibly only a decade or two away from from super intelligence AI, implemented genetic engineer like Crisper, nano machines, robots, nuralink, nuclear fusion ,ect. So it could be that this will be the last normal human lifespan cycle. The kurzweil argument makes this global rise in political tyranny a possible answer to the Fermi paradox. The Fermi paradox is a question asking if there are so many stars and technology improving life had developed anywhere else in the galaxy it is likely it would have happened a lot time a go. So even at an expansion of sun light speed the entire galaxy should have been colonized by now. So the saddest hypothesis to the Fermi paradox I can think of is that on any plant where life evolves to build technology there always likely to be social animals so you can have leather teams and companies of specialists bs some super smart octopus loaner life form. And these reciting multi generation power dynamics we have might be a universal trait leading to cycles of progress and destruction among all biological technological species that can get to our level of technology. It feels like we almost need that recurring 4th generation war, but that could spiral from internal conflicts in the west to conflicts between major nuclear armed powers. But if we don’t have this conflict period that we seem to have every 80 years we could instead slip into some Orwellian population collapse nightmare. So that is my answer to the Fermi paradox. Social Biological animas that can work together to produce advanced technology need war periodically to straighten there societies out. But they always figure out nuclear, chemical, and / or biological weapons first.

The US and Canada have another issue that this doesn't take into account. Their sheer size. People on the west will pretty much never travel to their respective capitals to protest or riot against anything. If a civil war were to break out it's very likely that the west coast would just block itself off from the rest of the country due to the massive natural barrier the mountains provide.

I happened to have majored in Classical Studies, of which today no longer exist as a distinct academic program at my alma mater, even though the degree didn't help me get a job, it did help me really understand Western Institutions and Values, and why they are the way they are today. One thing I learned as a Classics Major is back in the 1920s and 1930s, Classical Education was embedded in the Education System, before one got to College. (Even my father who went to High School in the late 50s early 60s had to learn a little bit of Latin, before being able to study any other language.) The average educated person knew about Greek and Roman Myths, History, and even Latin and Ancient Greek to a degree. In fact, my final exam for Intro to Ancient Greek, included a College Entrance Exam Translation Passage, where a University Candidate had to be able to translate it into English, as part of the overall Entrance Exam.

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.” ― Alexander Fraser Tytler

While it may not be immediately apparent to everyone, there's a growing concern that a subtle form of control is emerging in Western societies. The tools in use-AI, corporate products, and the push for technological conveniences-aren’t entirely new, but their modern applications can obscure their true purpose. The leadership we see may not be the ones truly directing these shifts; there could be other forces, whether corporate or otherwise, guiding society for their own reasons. However, it’s important to consider how our collective desires for comfort and innovation may unintentionally support this process. The potential for this system of influence to become fully established is something worth being mindful of.

Hypocrisy in that flag brother. Russia literally has a Tsar,,instead of nobility this one came from the communist KGB hardliners. The new tsar, appoints who will be oligarchs & he also can take away that status. There is no protest or free speech in Russia. It’s an informational autocracy with its state media apparatus. It’s an eight year prison sentence for calling a war a war. That’s very dystopian. Wise Russian sage said “it is the slaves that make tyrants.” When Russia was a monarchy, it would go to war to protect ALL Slavs, that’s why they entered the first World War, now, this Nova-Russia is the largest murder of Slavs. Deny it say whatever propaganda you want, but remember this history is not going to buy the propaganda and judgment will be harsh. Modern Russia has made it and trees into the annals of history as a stain consisting of ash & blood. God bless you have a nice day, brother .

The people not acknowledging their weakness and the fact they've been fooled into complying with idiots, and instead doubling down on those same faults because the alternative is to admit they are stupid to not have noticed they were stupid, and now willfully stupid when it is pointed out to them and they refuse to acknowledge it out of fear/shame of accountability in their part in allowing themselves to be weak, is far greater to them than actually surviving and thriving.

That’s because these patterns are cyclical. Basically every society goes four cycles or turnings between crises and prosperity before repeating another cycle. The whole process is about 80 to 90 years, and then it repeats. I don’t remember if it was Aristotle or Plato that originally outlined the concept, but the late 90’s book “The fourth turning” goes into much more detail and actually predicts martial law after a pandemic, a terrorist attack to make us go to the Middle East, and several several other global agenda items. The idea starts out with a hero generation facing a crises period until they overcome the crises to create good times. The good times Spoil the youth generation so they rebel. This spoiled rebel artists generation typically does a worse job at raising there kids so you end up with social change and then the Gen X types who are more individualistic and self reliant. Political problems start to then emerge with individualism leading to more extreme and divisive Political views and growing partisanship. In American history we become the most libertarian during these periods. We either want to be more isolationist or some states or colonies start to propose declaring independence. Then some series of events unfold that lead to a war or another crisis. In US history you had the revolutionary war, the civil war, World War II, and what ever were living thru now. After the conflict starts the new hero generation steps up to handle the crisis before establishing a new good times period of prosperity. The total multi generational cycle is around 80 to 90 years and repeats because people repeat patters that they haven’t ever lived through. In Ray Dalio’s book he takes the argument one step farther and describes how the dominant world powers rise and fall over several hundred years as part of a larger cycle with multi shorter 80 year cycles within. In Ray Kurzweil’s singularity is near book he gives one long cycle for the evolution of life, dna, intelligence, technology, and then a technological singularity. Each epoch of complexity creates the next. On the one hand we are on the verge of both internal civi1 w@rs and possibly international conflicts between major nuclear powers. But at the same time we are possibly only a decade or two away from from super intelligence AI, implemented genetic engineer like Crisper, nano machines, robots, nuralink, nuclear fusion ,ect. So it could be that this will be the last normal human lifespan cycle. The kurzweil argument makes this global rise in political tyranny a possible answer to the Fermi paradox. The Fermi paradox is a question asking if there are so many stars and technology improving life had developed anywhere else in the galaxy it is likely it would have happened a lot time a go. So even at an expansion of sun light speed the entire galaxy should have been colonized by now. So the saddest hypothesis to the Fermi paradox I can think of is that on any plant where life evolves to build technology there always likely to be social animals so you can have leather teams and companies of specialists bs some super smart octopus loaner life form. And these reciting multi generation power dynamics we have might be a universal trait leading to cycles of progress and destruction among all biological technological species that can get to our level of technology. It feels like we almost need that recurring 4th generation war, but that could spiral from internal conflicts in the west to conflicts between major nuclear armed powers. But if we don’t have this conflict period that we seem to have every 80 years we could instead slip into some Orwellian population collapse nightmare. So that is my answer to the Fermi paradox. Social Biological animas that can work together to produce advanced technology need war periodically to straighten there societies out. But they always figure out nuclear, chemical, and / or biological weapons first. So to paraphrase Elon musk I think if life turns out to be common that the technological species either nuke themselves, or decay and collapse like that 1960s rat experiment if nuclear deterrence prevents there generation of crisis being handled the normal way.

Not really, basically the US revolution and the constitution were a restoration of English common law and rights of the Magna Carta which had been trampled on by Oliver Cromwell after the English Civil War in the mid 17th century, as well as the 1689 British bill of rights created after Cromwells regime failed. Essentially they were fighting for rights they should have already had as Englishmen. So it wasn’t exactly anything new, they just wanted their old rights back. George Washington’s family actually moved to the 13 colonies because his family were royalists, who had sided with the king and fought against Cromwell and the parliamentarians so they fled England fearing persecution after the civil war, this is an important part of why he was who he was and did what he did that is often forgotten about, why his family moved to the US in the first place, as well as the lessons learned during the English civil war that they definitely hadn’t forgotten about.

I see a ton more indirect parallels than direct ones, which tells you something about just how clever modern tyrants really are. Today in the West, it’s extremely rare to find a tyranny that centers around an individual leader/ruler/executive that appears in the headlines; more often than not, that tyrant is in fact beholden to a coalition/cabal of bureaucrats and aristocrats that hide in plain sight. Thus the tyrant himself is more like a figurehead in all but name.

And those people get special "favor" which make them loyal to the government in illusion of a secured life. 3rd killing or throwing people into jail or threatening who opposed their tyrannical activities. Which made fear among mass people leading to loss of many human rights. All those things happened for 15 years. Finally people burst out with their anger, resentment against the fascist, tyranny government.
