A SLOW AND SURE DEATH OF DEMOCRACY, AS WE KNOW IT ......


Just about to enter our third decade of the 21st century, we live new realities, at least in the political and economical sense, our new breed of aggressive politicians/dictators/fascist/Capitalists, are the new realities of our modern times. Their tactics and demagoguery are almost identical, all using the same umbrella, the same greedy excessive profiteering to achieve personal and national gains, using the full scope of Orwellian "parallel reality" to achieve their purposes and goals. Leaders who are devoid of any philosophy or strategy, only a collage of impoverished vocabulary contradictions and empty rhetoric.

Orwellian "New speak and parallel realities" was a fictional language, it's used today to mirror and satirize what we used to call "Wooden language", or "langue de bois" wherby the object is avoidance of concrete facts and realities, " My theories and strategies are true because they are correct" !!!. The world has only things good,or things evil. Nothing in between. These leader's power lie in giving themselves the ability to say what they want, when they want, regardless of the facts or the reality, they are leaders of their countries and masters of reality.

Most of these leaders are open and clear deceivers, whereby they knowingly know they are lying and deceiving their followers, and masses and the world, few are convinced they have the truth and nothing but the truth, the rest is invariably fake news and blatant media and opposition intentional aggression. Mr. Trump of America is obviously a leader in this domain, and is helping many around the world establish their false reigns, they are all hiding behind his ways , demagoguery, lies and pseudo aggressiveness.

Mr. Trump denies and confirms, he refutes the most prominent scientific opinions, he is against all State Department veterans, and most senior army generals, all for his own ego and parallel convictions and immediate benefits, be it financial or electoral. He appointed some of the most inexperienced people to major key internal and foreign affairs, including his beloved young puppet son in law as the chief architect for one of the most delicate and volatile spots of the world, the Middle-East and its Israeli impossible dilemma.       

Like all dictators nowadays, they work against the advise of all senior professional advisers, as well as cabinet's appointees, who are mostly there to carry specific tasks, of destroying and vilifying the existing and inherited previous departments and legislation. and trying to find meanings and suitable explanations to their leader's erratic tweets and press statements and policies, only reflecting their parallel and singular understanding of realities and weird agendas.

Mr. Netanyahu is already paying a dear price for his autocracy, personal profiteering and crazy dreams of absolute hegemony, plunging his country in a bizarre, to say the least, situation and political impasse. All based on a decade of parallel realities and lies, fake assumptions, dreams and demagoguery. At least , over there it could be a temporarily recess for the Palestinians and their close neighbors.

Syria has been living for decades under the same false parallel realities, and truth denial, pretentious and false aspirations by the ruling Assad regime and his profiteering oligarchy, it all ended in a total massacre and destruction of Syria. Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, now Yemen and Sudan, are all as well as their Latin American banana entities, with great help from the U.S. are all paying a dear price for their illusions, their adventures, and their reliance on the great Allie, with his parallel imaginary realities,  and his fake one way Democracy.

Mr. Putin is interfering with great success in practically every Democratic election that is going on in any spot of the world, with no apparent immediate gain to mother Russia, but surely destroying and giving a bad name to Democracy itself and proving it a failure, and amplifying its social divisions.

Finally, and with the latest pseudo invasion of major parts of Syria, Mr. Erdogan of Turkey, with his big dreams of reviving his Islamic Ottoman caliphate, under his reign of course, The man apart from his foreign ambitions, is jailing all his opposing dissidents, he is destroying books, and purging all cultural aspects since 2016, for a few years now more than 300.000 books have been confiscated and destroyed, including many text books banned for mentioning Pennsylvania where his created alleged rival Gulen is self exiled. The Turkish council for protection of minors from harmful publications knows no rest in declaring books by international renown authors, about rights of boys and girls, as bad influence and automatically banned. A truly great Islamic 1984 new world and its big brother.

No one would in her or his right mind, accept or believe that any authoritarian or absolute dictatorship, whether it's a Trump style or Netanyahu , Putin, Assad or Erdogan , care about the well being or the welfare of his people, or anyone else for that matter, only their families and their loyal entourage and oligarchies for as long as they serve and last. Their wealth and power are the main reason for tolerance. Idiocracy is surely beating all forms of Democracy, and greater times are ahead.
                                           
                                           As always , my profound gratitude for your time .....
