Democracy is a system by which the anarchists punish us statists by sending their most marginally pro-social representative to be a representative of chaotic neutral in order to generate the surprise needed to steer the ship of self-organization. We democrats think that we are settling issues by a comparing crowd sizes, but the truth of it is that all of this happens in a clearing created by the silent anarchist majority.
You think the politicians are in charge? You look at this and you tell me we're not being punished?
