Ignorance

The proliferation of media (social and other) has ruined politics. Before, politicians were doing an occasional good thing, out of sheer ignorance.

Irony

Our parents’ generation, living in Eastern Block, was listening to VOA in order to get uncensored news. Their children, living in the West, are doing the same, watching RT and other sources.

Game

Undermining Trump’s election victory is tantamount to invalidating US’s political system, in general. We like the game only when we’re winning: it’s childish and immature, and shows a bad character.

Constituency

The real constituency for our representatives is businesses that finance their campaigns. The fact is that they spend all of their time advancing their supporters’ businesses.

Happiness

A truly happy social life is possible only in ideologies. Take USSR, USA, China, 3rd Reich, Ancient Rome as examples. Man needs certainty, in any form or shape.

Nonsense

I was watching a political panel on TV today: Briton and American are attacking NATO, while Polish is defending it! What a nonsense!

NATO

Can I borrow NATO for a moment? My neighbors are annoying me, I want them out!

The most populous party in the World would be the Workers’ Party, if everybody who works for a living would join. Unfortunately, the others, who don’t work for a living, are constantly obstructing its organization.

Difference

I’d rather live in a dictatorship, if everything is provided (education, social security…), than in a democracy, where, regardless of the effort, nothing is guaranteed…
