If this were a game of RISK, well...at least both sides would be fighting for survival.

How is this relevant to this particular thread?

Umm, you posted a tweet that said Jihadists were the most violent source of religious war in history. I pointed out our own Christian shame in this country, slave owners, and their deplorable violence against "their property."
Hell, white Christians still lynched blacks in the 1950s and 1960s here in the US.

So you suck at math and at history, gotcha.

Sure it does. America wasn't originally white.

And where do you think the first Americans came from?

That's such a silly and tired argument. Native Americans were displacing each other for years long before "white" man got here.

The Southern US slave owners disagree (about who was most violent). But do continue on, you're going to miss the witch dunking.

Why Democracy Always Fails

Some are able to escape this trap. They tend to have higher intelligence and be concerned with accuracy, namely how closely the impressions and predictions in their minds match the working of reality outside of the mind. They also have a moral sense which is not, in the herd style, a defensive morality aimed at avoiding loss of life, but a creative morality which strives to improve the quality of life as an existential experience.


Those are rare, however, and when the vote is taken, there are fewer of them than homeless guys voting for free toilet paper in every election, and so they are statistically eliminated early in the process. On top of that, however, we can see another reason why democracy always fails: voters choose appearance over reality.
