Democracy is not just about voting every three of four years.

Hassy, still in favour of a preemptive nuclear strike on Pakistan, where you could wipe out 200 million innocent men, women and children as you once proposed on this very Forum? On the grounds of "get em' before they get us"! Now who is the "trash" old cock. Skulk away and don't answer, as you have done in the past when I ask that very question of you.

Hi Hassie,

I don't know who you're referring to as "trash," we're
all human beings with more in common than most of us
realize. It's simply a matter of getting to know each
other to realize that.

I remember when I was growing up the falsehoods that
were spread around about the so-called migrants then
and the "peculiar" food they supposedly ate. Today
that food - like pickles, sour-cream, yogurt, and
different breads, and meat varieties - are the norm
and fully acceptable. If only this was true with people.

How little the right to vote has to do with democracy - now more than ever that there is only a scintilla of difference between the major parties - is evident after each election, and right up to the next one - is what they DON'T do that they said they would before the election, and what they DO do that they didn't say they would, before the election. It's not hard to find many examples.

Are elected politicians even part of democracy any more? We seem to be increasingly told what to do or not do by unelected bureaucrats, activists-judges, and extreme minority groups. In the case of the latter, no institution has escaped from an onslaught of propaganda about homosexuality, transgenderism, critical race theory, cultural Marxism, racial divisions, feminism and how bad white men are.

What do all governments do? Not even nothing: they join in.

Anyone who does try to object is accused of 'hate speech', 'racism' and called a Nazi by nutters too nutty to realise that Nazis/National Socialists were people just like themselves. If they don't like your religion, they call you a hater - and are joined in the hissing and pissing by the Victorian Premier and the Federal Opposition Leader. Earlier than that by an ex-Prime Minister who was accusing soldiers of war crimes prior to any enquiry, and apologising to a female claiming to have been raped pre-trial. The same female has now been awarded an alleged $3 million (still no trial) without so much as a 'by your leave' to the citizens and voters doing the paying? Democratic?

Politicians seem to serve the bad and the ugly in Australia these days - not the majority, no matter how they vote. They are covered by the disgraceful ABC (at your expense) and the Leftist mainstream media, free unless you pay for the rubbish.

And, you know what? The wimpy population isn't going to do a thing about it; and soon, they won't even have to bother with voting.
