Would anyone reading this agree that there has been election interference in the USA in the past 20 years? Two answers: Yes or No. I am not here to accuse either side of election rigging. Instead, we need to understand the implications of it.
Cheating is an appropriate game strategy if your team wins. After all, it is up to the accuser to find proof. Cheating is not an appropriate game strategy if your team loses. And you bear the proof of the accusation. Sucks for the loser. But, if there is no proof of cheating, has there been any cheating? Does lack of proof mean it didn’t happen? If there is no one in the forest, does the tree still make noise when it falls?
Someone or some persons have spent a lot of thought, effort, time, and money to undermine the American voting process in the last couple of decades. They have used propaganda to create an atmosphere of distrust among voters. So, even if there was no cheating, both sides of the game will always believe there was cheating simply because they do not trust the process! Eventually this could lead to the very thing America doesn’t want and that is a one party nation. How? Because the party that has the strongest foothold in the “cheating” (whether physical cheating is actually done or not, as long as the people do not trust the process, there will always be suspicion.) process will always be the one making the rules. And creating an atmosphere of suspicion undermines the process and can be considered cheating as it entails outright lying, mistruths, lying by omission. Let’s take a look at other countries that have one party.
“Countries that have a one-party system include the three communist states of North Korea, China, and Korea, as well as Iraq. In the 20th century, one of the most prominent examples of a state with a one-party system was the Soviet Union. A common feature that is shared in countries with one-party systems is the banning of political opposition by law.” https://www.reference.com/world-view/countries-one-party-system-883f1331a795a6cf
Read that again. “A Common feature that is shared in countries with a one party system is the banning of political opposition by law.” Think back about all the censorship Facebook, Twitter, and IG have imposed on users. Think back about all the accounts that were involuntarily deactivated, messages that were involuntarily deleted, and messages that were declared false. Ask yourself this: How much input will you have in a one party system? Why dont you ask someone who lives in one.
There are way too many people who really believe the world’s governments have the people in their best interest. Do you think politicians stay up at night thinking of ways to make your life happier, more fulfilling, and more successful? Probably not. But they are thinking of ways to gain more power and more wealth and the only way you fit in that equation is working for them and paying taxes. Or, being completely dependent on them and never really moving forward. Pick your role carefully. You will be living it for the rest of your life.
