America is the world's only nation with a democratically elected royalty
Edited on Mon May-29-06 10:30 PM by tocqueville
"Branding and nepotism go hand in glove. To this day, the Ivies maintain a Rich-White-Guy affirmative action scam that allows a certified cretin like George W. Bush to serve a 4-year boozing stint and get a Yale degree for it. The French chopped off their king's head for that sort of favoritism and are unlikely to be impressed; especially when they see the kind of simian chest-thumper it winds up bringing to power. America is the world's only nation with a democratically elected royalty. An astonishing 63 percent of US presidents are mutual relatives (of easily traced lineage) and Dubya—man of the people—counts no fewer than 15 US presidents among his relatives (http://www.burkes-peerage.net/sites/america/sitepages/page73-2.asp). Naturally, it is Hillary's and Jeb's self-perceived destiny to raise these numbers to ever more ludicrous heights."

1. The Oppressor has been Internalized. That's what Paolo Freire

would say.

The oppression is so complete that identity is affected and individuals loose their individuality by internalizing the Oppressor, i.e. identifying with the oppressor to the exclusion of their own individuality. And oppression is the norm, not to be resisted. In love with the beautiful Aristocracy. These are Nietzsche's "Last Men".
