Democracy Easy Disappear

More From Brian Eno

The human race will disappear. other races will appear and disappear in turn. the sky will become icy and void, pierced by the feeble light of half-dead stars. which will also disappear. everything will disappear. and what human beings do is just as free of sense as the free motion of elementary particles. good, evil, morality, feelings? pure 'victorian fictions'. only egotism exists.

I am a mexican. the united states lived seventy-five years with the one party system in mexico - the pri - without batting an eyelid, never demanding democracy of mexico. democracy came because mexicans fought for democracy and made a democracy out of our history, our possibilities, our perspectives. democracy is not something that can be exported like coca-cola. it has to be bred from the inside, according to the culture, the conditions of each country.
Country Party Perspective
Democracy is never a thing done. democracy is always something that a nation must be doing. what is necessary now is one thing and one thing only, that democracy become again democracy in action, not democracy accomplished and piled up in goods and gold.

There is, then, no danger in the circumstances that anti-semitism will disappear, for it is the jews themselves who add fuel to its flames and see that it is kept well stoked. before the opposition to it can disappear, the malady itself must disappear. and from that point of view, you can rely on the jews: as long as they survive, anti-semitism will never fade. (13th february 1945)

It was so easy to disappear, so easy to deny knowledge, so very easy in the smoke and din to mask that something dark had taken root. this was chicago, on the eve of the greatest fair in history.

The moral case is, people say, "oh they're not ready for democracy," but that's something someone who lives in a democracy would say about someone who doesn't live in a democracy. well, if democracy is the highest form of human potential, then it can't be true for us and not for them. but, the practical case is democracies don't invade their neighbors. democracies don't traffic in child soldiers. democracies don't harbor terrorists as a state policy. so there's a reason to have more democratic states.

A child in its greed for love does not enjoy having to share the affection of its parents with its brothers and sisters; and it notices that the whole of their affection is lavished upon it once more whenever it arouses their anxiety by falling ill. it has now discovered a means of enticing out its parents' love and will make use of that means as soon as it has the necessary psychical material at its disposal for producing an illness.

The only parents in the world who don’t need sleep, and our child already sleeps through the night. edward cullen, breaking dawn, chapter 22, p.429
Children Sleep Night
People whose integrity has not been damaged in childhood, who were protected, respected, and treated with honesty by their parents, will be-both in their youth and in adulthood-intelligent, responsive, empathic, and highly sensitive. they will take pleasure in life and will not feel any need to kill or even hurt others or themselves. they will use their power to defend themselves, not to attack others. they will not be able to do otherwise than respect and protect those weaker than themselves, including their children, because this is what they have learned from their own experience.
