Yeah, it’s a freak show out there, and the “leaders” of the world are the exact reflection of the people they “serve.” Just go outside and start looking at ordinary people and you’ll see what I mean. More and more disgusting piercings and tattoos, especially evident during the summer. The real reason that governments allow piercings and tattoos is so that they can quickly identify the stupid people. Granted, they own their own bodies, however they choose to go out of their way to look hideous. I own my body as well, and for that reason I keep it clean, and well-dressed.
The reason that the “leaders” of the world act like they do is because they’re all psychopaths. The exceptions to this are few and far between. Psychopaths are usually pretty smart, and constantly strive for more of whatever gets them high, like power. But like I said, they’re just a reflection of their people. Just look at Milos Zeman of the Czech Republic. That slobbering drunk actually made a speech which in condensed form says “we don’t need anyone, screw you all! No, you need US (Czech Republic).” Oh really, Milos. I’m sure you’ll be claiming the same thing when Russia cuts your gas supplies as a result of the sanctions imposed on that country by the USA, because at this point, Europe has become the punching bag of the superpowers because we don’t have the guts to do something along the lines of “OK, you (the USA) stop the sanctions on Russia NOW, or we stop buying your funny-money denominated Treasury Bonds.” Just for starters.
The real problem is that most people still believe that their governments care about what they want. Guess what, THEY DON”T CARE. Never have and never will. Any politician can make any promises they want just to get elected, but none of those promises are legally binding, that’s why they’re not accountable to the people. And because the politicians are all psychopaths, you’d actually be better off not having any elections at all, but instead selecting them in a lottery at random.
