People collectively are stupid, lazy, forgetful, and irrational which makes them easily manipulated. Democracy’s reliance on the opposite from its citizens means people have to constantly fight against their own nature to preserve it. And when they’re continuously successful they’re prone to forget why they’re doing it in the first place and get lazy. When that happens they’re just as likely to throw up their hands and say “fuck it” when uncomfortable or faced with adversity as they are to get in line and enthusiastically ask to blow the whole thing up, wittingly or not.
Similar idea to “Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times” if strong and weak were idk vigilant and apathetic probably work.
Idk, im just stoned writing shit, im not educated or anything, probably shouldn’t take me too seriously. Sorry i worded the original comment poorly lol.

Bro we have the oldest still in use codified constitution in the world and haven’t updated it in 40 years, really longer. What exactly made you think this fucked up system was anywhere close to resilient?
