A democracy is a situation where you ‘agreed’ to be ruled by a piece of paper.

I know it sounds ridiculous but that’s the modern-day Democracy. You can’t go against the constitution, even if you don’t know what’s in it, neither can you contribute to it. Instead, you have to come together in your village and get another village and another village to form a constituency and collectively select 1 person who can contribute something to the constitution.

Mind you, even this selection process is easily manipulatable via bribery of the ‘selectors’ and even worse, coercion of the referees overseeing the selection process. So, whoever you purport to have selected however disputed will end up in the house of commons pushing their personal agenda.

If the house decides they need better salaries, they just have to agree to a figure and put that figure in that piece of paper that I told you about and then there is nothing you can do about it.

But is there something you can do? Oh yes, you can picket, riot, speak and shout about it. But then they will collectively scribble about it in the piece of paper and describe it as illegal, allocate heavy penalties and sentences for the purported offenders and pass it into law. Now, you can’t even post about it.

If you don’t like it, you can go to court. Good luck with that with your shallow pockets and equally shallow vocabulary.

If you don’t want to be governed under the conditions in this piece of paper, you can leave the jurisdiction within which this unique piece of paper applies. This jurisdiction is known as a country. But then you will just end up in another country with a worse piece of paper than the one you found when you were born. And they keep scribbling worse things on this piece of paper, they never stop to correct it, those who would have safeguarded its integrity are gone or muzzled. You might Know Morara Kebaso, he is now busy trying to push his furniture business after he was almost driven bankrupt.

So what to do now, what to do?
