News flash: neither do kings, or theocrats, or illuminated great leaders of socialist regimesβ¦
The good news is that in some democratic republic (what some optical scientists call polyarchy) the change of who holds some of the reins of power can be done without deaths or bloodshed.
They have though. Look at 1906, 1945, 1966, 1997. Each government then reducing that political power. This "voting changes nothing" bollocks is the actual way the rich entrench interests, by cultivating apathy.
This is very true. The rich are never taken down by voting, yet sometimes they are taken down. This is why theyβre all building bunkers and self-sustaining super yachts to escape us.
To rule, one must have vassals. Have you ever seen what it looks like when you try to take their power away?

While I was born & raised in America, "technically" speaking, I am not "from here," so I choose not to vote.
