“As an American I am of course fundamentally opposed to democracy and to anyone advocating or defending democracy, which in theory and practice is the basis of socialism.”
Rose Wilder Lane
“Democracy is not freedom. Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for lunch. Freedom comes from the recognition of certain rights which may not be taken, not even by a 99% vote.”
James Bovard
“The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all, it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality.”
H. L. Mencken
“How perilous it is to free a people who prefer slavery.”
Niccolo Machiavelli

I have been thinking A LOT about that Machiavelli quote before even reading it. Why do we bother fighting when we are in a sea of morons who don’t care that their smart TV’s are just spy devices, who willingly follow ridiculous government rules and most abhorrently of all NEVER question a god damn thing! Very frustrating to say the least
