NOTHING LEFT TO SEE HERE FOLKS. DEMOCRACY IS NOW DEAD.

It’s time to say what the so-called prognosticators either can’t see or are afraid to say.

Never did I think I’d be writing the case for why we need to end democracy as soon as possible. Never. It was an unthinkable thought before Trump. No other system could have even been anywhere on the table. Heck, I would have thought it a true evil. A majority of people will think I’m evil for even suggesting democracy has outlived its usefulness and is taking us to the ultimate destruction of humanity. Being hated is no big deal if our existence as a race is on the line.

Unfortunately, the combination of massive technological advancement and extensive polarization in civilization, specifically the radicalization of conservatives, are now pushing us to the brink of extinction. As we move into an extinction phase, democracy is destined to then fail and be replaced by tyranny. And none of this is very far off in the future.

All of the articles you read lately that decry Trump Republicans are killing democracy are late to the game. It’s dead. We just haven’t reached the tyranny part of the play that comes right before the denouement where all of the strands are drawn together and everyone starts dying. Maybe other analysts and commentators are just afraid to come to that…
