Should Tyranny Be Accepted, Part One
Should the People of the United States, the true sovereign, seek to live in a democratic republic, or subjugated under an authoritarian oligarchy?
Since the end of the Second World War, the question how an authoritarian government could come to power is often asked. How could a political philosophy of extreme restrictive ideals and abhorrence towards a particular portion of the population, rule over an enlightened society? Sadly, here is how. When a group of individuals take control of the information communicated, the political narrative consumed by the general population, specifically to benefit their own self-interest, it is then society falls under the control of authoritarians and, unfortunately, many of who now manage essential segments of the federal, state, and local governments.
Freedom, or liberty, as recognized by the Founders, was understood to be a Natural Right granted by omnipotence, not by an individual or group of individuals, such as an immoral and corrupt monarch, dictator, or council. If rights derive from these sections of society, the dangers of authoritarians obtaining power and stripping the People of their Rights becomes alarmingly real. Are the People disposed to having eyes and ears yet, choose not to see or hear what occurs before them? When government tries to implement unconstitutional law, stripping the People of a Right, the action becomes illegitimate and should not be obeyed, for the stronger the demand made by any illegitimate law, the stronger becomes the need for the People to challenge it.
To deny hope, abandon the noble struggle to remain free, because the fear of becoming unable to cope with formidable adversaries, immoral and corrupt political, financial, and media elites, is to ignore the natural power given by omnipotence that resides in the hearts of the People.
