I’m taking no chances!! I’m voting tactically! I want the greedy, corrupt and useless out of government! Oust a greedy Tory!!
Johnson’s Sun Lit Uplands
Let’s shine the light on the sunny results of Brexit – poverty, austerity, lower GDP, ruined public services – but don’t worry. Lots of their chums made an awful lot of money!! When you made food too expensive, do away with good health care and mess up education kids suffer. It’s shocking. Welcome to Toryland. If you can’t afford basics then go without. Only the rich count.
Under the Tories the rich get richer and the rest of us a lot poorer!!
The Gaining of Power
The Gaining of Power
To gain power
You must be ruthless,
Selfish and greedy,
Arrogant and vicious.
You need to be
A narcissist,
A psychopath,
And egomaniac,
A sociopath at very least.
Those who are
Mild,
Compassionate
And selfless,
Never make it through the process.
They are weeded out.
We always end up
With the product
Of the system.
That is why
Things are as they are.
Opher – 3.6.2023
If you set up a system which values strength above all else, which rewards people who see things in black and white and are decisive, you are bound to end up with callous, calculated leaders.
Psychopaths and sociopaths are not hampered by feelings for others.
Politics is lies, spin and intrigue in a cut-throat world. There is no room for people who care. Compassion is seen as a weakness.
To avoid leaders like Trump, Johnson, Bolsonaro, Meloni, Oban, Modi and Putin, we need to develop a better system.
Fascism seems to be a default mechanism in humans, a giant flaw in our nature, built in to our DNA.
