What Happened in the USA can Happen Anywhere...



"A constitution should be structured to permanently protect the people from the human frailties of their rulers."
-W. Cleon Skousen

The transition from Federal Republic to Oligarchy/Dictatorship/Kleptocracy that is currently happening in the United States of America can happen anywhere. If anything, this is a reminder that we must pay closer attention to our governments/leaders because if we don't then we may see changes that will make things worse for our country.
  • Netherlands, Italy, Hungary and Poland have seen a rise in far-right extremist beliefs.
  • Germany is facing similar problems with the rise of the AfD political party.
  • In Canada, the conservative leader seems to be using similar strategies as Trump did during his campaign.
It's a concerning trend, as these movements often target marginalized communities and push for more illiberal democratic systems. The rise of such parties can have real-world consequences, including the rollback of human rights for various communities.

"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."
-Jiddu Krishnamurti

It's important that we vote, while we still can, and develop an ability to identify good vs bad leaders. If, for example, a leader keeps saying he'll "become a dictator on day 1" this may not be the person you want to represent your country no matter what other silly promises he may be talking about.
