RE: Playing Politics is Immoral and Stupid
When history shows a long train of corrupt, vain, short-sighted, power-hungry psychopaths in power, and we now understand that such power draws the corrupt and inevitably corrupts the virtuous due to the perverse incentives, what of Plato then?
Plato was a pioneer, but we don't rely on astrologers to describe the cosmos, or alchemists to describe the nature of matter. Plato was wrong on many important matters, and merely appealing to his authority is not an argument at all.
Everything in existence returns to its root cause. (A person that knows how to use chaos can absolve anarchy in a single process)There are no examples where anarchy work, for everyone that partook dissented on their initial cause. I dont understand the logic behind taking psychopaths out of power, inputting younger inexperienced psychopaths that vehemently demand instant gratification. There is no logic in these words spread about. If you cannot see solutions given by earlier philosophers, perhaps stop reading various texts "at face value."
Why not, get smart and use the system? Instead of larkenrose complaining like a child at end of his videos, why not offer a solution? Why not teach people how to put municipalities in a corner, in a dignified manner? This is why i state its immoral and stupid, much like the falsehood thats portrayed in the picture.
Society only functions because anarchy works. Government is a parasite on progress, not its foundation. Rejecting established psychopaths is not opening the way for new psychopaths.
