I find it sort of odd, no, scratch that, typical that people disagree with the Empire. Ah, congratulations you rebellious little humans. Congratulations on being rebellious! That’s good, that desire to fight for truth and justice. Unfortunately, not only could fighting against the Empire probably be detrimental to all humankind, it is probably one of the truest, most good things that we have. Be rebellious about being rebellious, be radical about being radical, and you might just arrive at the truth, sort of like looking at your reflection at a fun house through a mirror that makes you look fat and another that makes you look skinny. I don’t mean that to be clever: I mean that, the conspiracy is that so few people know the truth, (they are either corrupt, or angry at corruption, ruling out about 99.99% of the population), and so it has so few champions. Whenever something your government does that’s wrong pisses you off, that’s good! Once again, like the fun house, when you look at the corruption, you see how things should be, so corruption tautologically reveals the ideal. And so you can see why the truth isn’t a really popular thing. People tend to think that the corrupt thing represents the government, when in fact corruption is the very bane of government, and eats at our ideal systems like rot, with the ability to bring them low.
Another reason why the truth about matters like Republic and Empire are so popular is because you don’t know what they ARE, and the reason why you don’t know is the very reason why you should. You don’t know because you were never taught in school that what a republic is, in fact, the definition is not on wikipedia. Despite pages and pages of notes saying that a republic is a mixed constitutional system, that the definition that states it is a government which is not a kingship is wrong, and that it is strictly a government composed of elements of democracy, kingship and oligarchy in perfect balance, they (the corrupt) do not want you to know this, because if you did, why you would have the key to making an educated decision on every bill that it came across your desk come voting time, as the republic says you can, that people are wise enough to judge the information before them, and you would be, and this is why they don’t want you to know. because you see, unlike in a democracy, in a republic the people vote on laws, so the easiest way to corrupt a republic is through the people (the senate and the president are checked by more laws) the corrupt people who get in office don’t want you to learn this, and so it is not taught in schools. And if people learned this, that a republic is a government for the people, by the people, they would be free (free to take part in their government).
You know what other simple defitions they haven’t even begun to be taught in schools? Many of these truths have been hidden so long you’d almost need a degree in classical history and Latin to know them, that’s how long the truth has been hiding. Empire is one of these words that the rebellious love to hate. Anarchists even more hate this word, as they hate all government, not realizing their own part in the cycle of governmental decay (see section). I shold have definitions of both these words on the site, since
