Consensus

Consensus Democracy, a hollow word makes me laugh darkly. Is the USA a democracy? You can vote every 4 years Among two parties who spring from the same narrow The base of the elite and is therefore not Democratic, but gives the illusion like the democratic republic Of Kongo, to be one and go to war against those who Has another opinion, say, freedom from tyranny And interference of foreign countries. Freed om is more important than democracy which Is a hiding place for thieves and land grabbers. Israel, knee-deep in Palestinian blood, is a democracy That brutalize their own people into thinking they have The right to defend themselves, thus behave with Callous insouciance towards the opinion of others.
