 they say that not all monarchs are evil or inept, but the worst ones
 definitely are.
 
 such is the same for all leaders, elected or otherwise.
 
 sometimes, it's better to question authority than to grow to resent it.
 
 resentment is inaction. it is an untenable [charity./tragedy.]

 The judges prevent the politicians from harming the people who elect the
 politicians who select the judges. Sounds like it should work well, no?
 
 well... the people are divided, but the politicians it seem are hardly so. So,
 the politicians elect their judges, who allow the passage of such laws which
 contradict the will of the people.
 
 The keys to power should rest in the hands of those who deserve it, not those
 who claim it. If those who claim it do not relinquish it for a worthy other,
 they are corrupt and must be dethroned.

 deserve leaders.
 
 build the structure first. build it on honesty and trust and dedication toward
 a goal. then build the necessary adaptations as you encounter problems, trying
 vaguely to head in a particular direction, and eventually you'll become
 self-sustaining.

 I can't reassure you about the "place", but the "times" are getting better. We
 stand now at the apex of their cruelty, and all it takes to reach the bright
 future is to keep moving forward.
 
 unfortunately, the future always comes, but it comes unevenly and not fully
 distributed. but it will come to all, this I swear.

 the horde and alliance are no more
 
 the scourge and the burning legion came and took what they came for
 
 our heroes languished in despair as their lights were snuffed out
 
 one
 
 by
 
 one
 
 but a new day is dawning, a day of legends
 
 stride forth and meet the legions
 
 and your tale will never be unsaid
 
 ride out as a new day is dawning
 
 and save us from hell's fading warning
 
 go, now, as our hopes abound,
 
 and claim a future for the yearning.

 pundits feel about it" it's literally scenery to them.
 
 why would they care? nothing changes for them.

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

 "do you hear the people sing" is not the vibe of revolution in modern times.
 
 For us it is a message of kindness, that we might deliver us from the dark.
 
 People singing are easy marks. Don't turn your phone on at night. Fucking turn
 it off. Don't do barricades, don't do broken windows. We need the city in
 working order. We are no longer protesting, we are seizing control. We will
 guide us, trust in the reasonable and heartfelt.
