hexenmexen posted:As can be seen from the majority of posters on here, having political variety is a bad thing, and anti-fash is some extension of law and order, not some group of thugs with self justified leftist ideology. Well liberals generally aren't as pro-war as conservative and I for one don't want a pointless war with Russia or China, as cool as Battlefield 2 is. OwlFancier posted:There's nothing that says people can't make group decisions in anarchy, merely that nobody is going to enforce them, you do it all the time with people in groups, you don't need someone in charge to come to an agreement always. Right but in a democracy they are enforced. That's what the "cracy" part means.

Can someone firebomb the forum servers? I'm pretty sure it'll kill less people than the sheer tedium of the circular arguments that are happening right now.

Jewel Repetition posted:Democracy is an incredibly precious, amazing thing. In a rational, positivist age it stands out as real because we choose to believe it's real. It's a hat trick, it's Wile E Coyote staying in the air because he isn't looking down, it's the greatest experiment ever undertaken. We were the first to do it in the modern era, and though we've occasionally faltered, unlike most other nations we've never lost it completely. Actually reading back at this I feel compelled to say bugger off, America was not the first country to do democracy in the modern age.

Other than the Corsican Republic it might be if you have a strict enough definition of democracy. And let's face it, the Corsican Republic is a footnote that I mostly didn't mention for rhetorical purposes. Politifact rates my claim half true.

Now that I'm home I'm tempted to post my exceedingly lukewarm takes on this instead of just making jokes about my home state, but holy crap I hate this discussion. Instead, going to post the latest onlxn tweets. https://twitter.com/onlxn/status/787890331815546880 https://twitter.com/onlxn/status/787890653128634368

The Iron Rose posted:Then world opinion is wrong. For all that I crow about the importance of democracy, the world stage is not a democracy. Is is anarchic, and more importantly, fundamentally anarchic. In such circumstances, this alleged 'world opinion' means little. Also your argument that American violence is justifiable when used to suppress less agreeable ideologies in the Middle-East you are directly contradicting the argument you made earlier against political violence

The Iron Rose posted:Again, I care about stability, peace, and prosperity in that order. And until we have some crazy sci fi one world government, American Hegemony is the most moral way to accomplish that. I imagine you like that Picard clone the Romulans did in that one really bad Next Gen movie. Except instead of needing Picard's blood transfusions to survive, you're dependent on regular infusions from Arab children.

Chomskyan posted:God drat you're dumb. Democracy is dictated by popular opinion, that's the entire point. If you don't care about world opinion, you don't actually believe in democracy. Not at all! I'm firmly against political violence and for democracy in democratic systems. The world stage is not a democratic system and cannot be a democratic system due to the fact that it's inherently and fundamentally anarchic. Even constructivists agree on this matter. Given the constraints of an anarchic system in which states are the primary actors, Hegemony and Unipolarity are the most beneficial models of State power for all actors. Also worth mentioning that democracy and majoritarianism are not the same thing. Gotta reference my boy Mill on this one.
