#Democracy inevitably leads to #idiocracy, as all kinds of #parasites - public, corporate and private - #vote and #lobby themselves more and more of "other people's #money".

Neither #Trump nor #Musk can change that fundamental fact! They just reveal it!

A #democracy is doomed by design, because it can't scale beyond the size of a #city state!

That was shown by #Athens in #Greece thousands of years ago!

A modern " representative democracy " is even worse than the direct one ancient Greeks tried.👎
