Shame that democracy is being so corroded by black security state: Brit, US, Sweden, Germany, the EU, .. .

[@SirAntoniousBlock]

That's because modern wars are fought by whole societies, not just armies.

Lmao who told you it’s “better” because “all people are somewhat involved in the system”? What system? What I can vote out a chairman of a big company as a normal citizen?
