This is so ridiculous I just had to post. Surrender and then try
to "fight" the invasion later by "using democracy in the
future"?
What...???

From what I was able to gather, Iversen is one of those
'political commentators' who serves to herd disgruntled
left-leaning people to the right. In this case, it seems she is
merely herding people to the most idiotic policy position.

Michael Beschloss: Biden Needs To Talk About Democracy In
‘Existential Danger’ ??? ::)
--- Quote ---
> Michael Beschloss, David Plouffe, and Stephanie Cutter join
Andrea Mitchell to share their expectations for President
Biden’s first State of the Union address. “He comes in at an
historic moment,” says Beschloss. “I think he's got to talk
tonight about the fact that we are all in existential danger of
having our democracy and democracies around the world
destroyed.”

Why would Putin want to destroy democracy when it's the best way
for tyrants to disguise their actions with the guise that all
their actions were actually the "will of the people"?

> In all, three individuals have served four presidencies
spanning six full terms. In May 2012, Vladimir Putin became the
fourth president; he was re-elected in March 2018 and
inaugurated in May to a six-year term.

It is amazing to see how many U.S. false-leftists are speaking
about "democracy" in regards to the current Ukraine-Russia war.
Soldiers die for freedom and their country, not some
false-leftists ridiculous belief in democracy being the solution
to all problems at all times in every country that's ever
existed. These people are insane and just make the rest of us
look like idiots for going along with that nonsense.

Here is another example proving that rightists are the true
democrats:

They are arguing that investigation of Trump will lead to loss
of Blue popular credibility, therefore should not be done. It is
leftists who are saying that Trump should be investigated simply
because it is the DOJ's job to do so. So why can't leftists
simply accept that leftism and democracy are incompatible? If
you believe authority derives from what is ethical, not what is
popular, you cannot be a democrat.

Swiss overwhelmingly reject ban on animal testing
[img]

Every time such a topic comes up on social media, a well-meaning
few will suggest that, in principle, it would be preferable to
test on violent criminals over non-humans. Those people are
immediately attacked, because somehow, a non-human who's done us
nothing wrong deserves to be put on the chopping block and
exploited more than even the worst human. This is what the
concept of "human rights" has done to the western brain, people.
Never forget how disgusting and cruel the majority of humans are
for even a single second. Lovers of animal testing have become
so calloused and adulterated, that they love this sick world
enough to willingly sacrifice millions of living beings whose
only crime was being born as the "wrong" species. They literally
view life down here as a privilege, and want to prolong it for
its own sake. The one minor good thing to come from this, is
that every time the well-meaning few that I mention are hit with
the comeback "Calm down, Mengele", the supporters of animal
testing are implicitly stating that the National Socialists
weren't western like our old enemy here, Switzerland.
Side note: Even worse than the proud preference for violent
humans over presumably innocent non-humans are the
passive-aggressive comments that attack true leftists with
"Looks like you should be the first to volunteer to be tested
then, if you hate animal testing so much." First of all, burn in
hell. I'll volunteer once every single human being who supports
this has been tested on first. We will no longer fall for the
ancient anti-Gnostic mind-game of "Well if you hate the material
world then you should set an example by being the first to
leave.", or any other similar mind-games like it. If anything,
the people who fight against animal testing the most, and
benefit from it the least, are the least deserving of being
tested on. So it logically follows that if animal testing is
wrong, then the people who have praised it and benefited from it
the most, are the ones who should be volunteering to move to the
front of the line. Of course, the dishonorable are mostly aware
of this on at least a subconscious level. They just don't care.

And, it is these types that will continue to reproduce, whilst I
suspect that the drop in human birth rates are noble people
choosing not to reproduce and bring children into this world
because they understand how terrible most human-beings really
are on a fundamental level. Things will get 10 times worse on
this planet for non-humans once all traces of true nobility have
been bred out of humanity by the ignoble. What a dark and dismal
world that will be....

This must be by Westerners and false-leftists love it SO much!?
For example, these Westerners want Republicans to return to
democracy even after they just recently elected Trump:
Let's talk about how Putin is saving the Republican party from
itself....
HTML https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Os1BYw1s_E&t=44s
Which begs the question, how many Trump's and Putin's will need
to be elected before Westerners let their delusion go?
Furthermore, how come most of these Westerners do not seek
democracy in business because their boss displays authoritarian
tendencies?
Perhaps the biggest problem with Westerners and why they love
democracy so much is because they believe most people are good,
because they believe themselves to be good?
Most Americans think that the majority of the country aren't bad
people, but poorer Americans are less likely to think the world
tends to be good
HTML https://today.yougov.com/topics/lifestyle/articles-reports/2015/09/30/world-more-good-people-than-bad
The problem with polls such as the one stated in the article
above is the fact that the person taking the poll cannot know
for certain whether or not the person they are asking the
question, "do you believe most people are good or bad?", is
actually a good or bad person themselves. Lastly, one does not
have to look too far to realize that most people are not
compassionate or empathetic:

--- Quote ---
> Are humans in the majority good, compassionate, kind hearted
and generous, or are they bad, manipulative, selfish and
untrustworthy?
>
> People can be split into five main categories when it comes to
morality (which I assume is what you are asking). The boundaries
are blurred and people under stress may "go back" a stage or
two. Using stealing as an example (but any bad behaviour can be
inserted):
>
> Amoral: These will steal, regardless of consequences and feel
no remorse whatsoever
> Expedient: These will steal and only feel bad about it if they
are found out
> Conformist: These will not steal because someone else has told
them not to (not because of any internalised sense of decency)
> Irrational Altruistic: These will tend not to steal because,
if they did, they would not feel good about themselves
> Rational Altruistic: These will not steal because they would
not feel good about themselves but also because it would not be
fair to, or nice for, the other person (ie they are able to
empathise).
>
> As "good, compassionate, kind hearted and generous" only
really describes the rational altruistic, then most people can
probably be considered "bad, manipulative, selfish and
untrustworthy". From personal experience and observation, I
suspect that the majority of humans are Expedient!

I agree with Penny! The majority of humans are not good people
