The word “democracy” is today the main organizer of consensus. What the word
is assumed to embrace is the downfall of Eastern Socialists States, the
supposed well being of our countries as well as Western humanitarian
crusades.

Actually the word “democracy” is inferred from what I term “authoritarian
opinion.” It is somehow prohibited not to be a democrat. Accordingly, it
furthers that the human kind longs for democracy, and all subjectivity
suspected of not being democratic is deemed pathological. At its best it
infers a forbearing reeducation, at its worst the right of meddling
democratic marines and paratroopers.
