So...
I'm currently taking a political science class, being taught by a political philosopher. Each day after I class I don't exactly feel like I'm learning or being taught...but I feel a little more enlightened. I'm not learning facts but coming to realizations about religion, philosophy, life and truth.
My professor has this incredible understanding and this demeanor of the world and America. He doesn't impose his views but always argues against yours for the sake of making you realize...
I'm not trying to troll or cause dissidence, but I wanna just wanna rant about some stuff after today's class and the recent political climate.....(sorry mods if this isn't allowed)
I think majority of Americans are extremely narrow minded (me included). It is always definitely about ME. My wants and my needs.
Our professor makes a strong emphasis on how everyone in America should try be enlightened. They should try to be virtuous, strive to be educated. They cannot just abide to one side of the political spectrum.
I hate that the great majority of people think America is a Democracy.
I hate how people vote for Senators and Representatives that appeal to what the people wants and interests are.
I wish people in America can become more selfless.
I hate the idea of Democracy IN America.
Why? Because Americans cannot handle democracy. We are becoming more selfish and narrow minded; it clouds our interests and wants. Senators and Reps should not do what the majority want because I believe our morals are wrong. The people SHOULD vote on representatives that do not succumb to the majority's interests BUT do what is BEST for overall society. But then again...no one is going to vote for a Senator that says "America your being stupid and selfish, let me do whats right". Corruption is not only in the house and senate but also in the people. This is why I believe democracy can ultimately not work...
