An autocratic country could easily spread propaganda in the democratic country, because of “free speech” rules that most democratic countries have, but a democratic country cannot easily spread its propaganda in the autocratic country.
An autocratic country can buy an election in the democratic country, but the democratic country cannot easily coup an autocratic country.
Are all democracies are doomed to fail?
Is the future of humanity, autocracy? For the rest of humanity’s existence?
People collectively are stupid, lazy, forgetful, and irrational which makes them easily manipulated. Democracy’s reliance on the opposite from its citizens means people have to constantly fight against their own nature to preserve it. And when they’re continuously successful they’re prone to forget why they’re doing it in the first place and get lazy. When that happens they’re just as likely to throw up their hands and say “fuck it” when uncomfortable or faced with adversity as they are to get in line and enthusiastically ask to blow the whole thing up, wittingly or not.
Similar idea to “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times” if strong and weak were idk vigilant and apathetic probably work.
Idk, im just stoned writing shit, im not educated or anything, probably shouldn’t take me too seriously. Sorry i worded the original comment poorly lol.
