"a list of individuals & opposition groups in #Russia who received money from #USAID...

#DonaldTrump has made it more than clear that he’s not opposed to giving in to every one of Russia’s demands...

#Russian govt, which is not only historically hostile to the #US, but takes extreme measures to stamp out dissent within its borders.

But this US administration is so far notably less hostile to autocrats, and practically uninterested in #democracy."

#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.👎
