I don’t want democracy.
Democracy means the majority rules over individual rights. Democracy means my idiot neighbor can vote away my right to free speech, to private property, to my income, my right to worship (or not worship) as I see fit, and my right to bear arms.
“Majority rule” (in a Constitutional republic, like the USA) presupposes that we may only vote into office people who will uphold our Bill of Rights. Nobody has a right to vote in a Communist, a fascist, a socialist, a Muslim totalitarian or anyone else who will obliterate my sovereign right over my own life, mind and destiny. Nearly everyone running for or holding national office today is an unlawful tyrant. Donald Trump stands as one of the very few exceptions.
If you don’t believe in freedom, it’s your prerogative to believe whatever you wish. If you do not wish to be free, that’s your problem. But you have no right to make your problem an excuse to legalize and legitimize my involuntary servitude. At some point, I simply will not take it anymore. Millions of us feel the same way. And our entirely justified anger is growing.
I am proud to be an enemy of democracy. Not because I oppose freedom, but because I grasp what freedom actually is. I wish more people did.
