the brainwashing is worse than I thought  Shocked
People are used to choose the "lesser evil" and feel proud for exercising their right to vote. The right of choosing which criminal faction is going to rule their nations for the next few years. In other words: to prejudice common citizens in order to boost personal interests of those in charge of power.

Democracy is a sacred word. If you criticize its flaws you are excluded from social environments. The truth is that every systems have their flaws, because they are ran by wicked human beings. But I really feel annoyed for democracy having a special treatment, as it was something superior to everything else.

I would prefer being ruled by a fair and kind king, than by a cynical and manipulative democrat regime, and vice-versa. After all the problem isn't even the regime, but the society, the people who compose it. The political scenario just reflects the quality of the countrymen.
People choose the lesser of the two evils because they are themselves evil and because they are themselves too inept to strategize and coordinate the situation in such a way that delivers positive results. They can only strategize in a way that delivers poor results and in such a way that undermines their own democracy.
