Good piece, brother Rohn. I offer the following neither as a rejoinder nor an argument of any kind. Let's say it's the way I feel. "American democracy" is the mask worn by a brutal and despicable empire whose wars--cold wars, hot wars, proxy wars, counterinsurgency wars, war games, unconscionable and endless preparations for war, war industries, war lobbies, economic wars, psychological wars, and more wars--make it a fit subject of its own internal, hostile takeover. It's how I feel. Those who want evidence should have little difficulty finding it.

hey brother paul / actually i don't disagree with you / 'american democracy' is a scam and a mask for all you pointed out / then again i can't think of a country on this planet where their government is not the same to one degree or another / actually this piece was written because i found the picture of aung san and min aung so compelling / as it evolved i realized the story of liz cheney was parallel in some ways / mentioning american democracy and liz cheney was a bit disingenuous - i could have said a lot of bad things about both but you did it for me / thanks
