The ongoing dirge for Western democracy is an annoying drone to most of us outside the fold. For years, we have been attacked by Western democracies with no democratic recourse at all. Who cares if Western democracy falls? Democracy is no guarantee that you won't be warlike slavers. Indeed, if you reference Greek democracy, that's the mold. If Western democracy is breaking so what? We should break that mold.

Since the slave states of the Greeks, Western democracy was always a violently exclusionary category. As Dimitry Kochenov says in his book Citizenship, “Proclaimed a servant of the great ideals, citizenship is a very effective abstract legal tool to justify essentially random violence, humiliation, and exclusion.” This is how it was intended by the Greek slave states, and modern slave states like America just lie to themselves about what they are.

You could say, well, Western democracy is inclusive, people can become citizens, but then look at the Romans. How did they expand from just Romans to an Empire? By including more people from the provinces, to administer their own subjugation. Inclusion is merely a tool of imperial inclusion. DEI is how you die inside. Inclusion in what? As Mary Beard said in SPQR,

No ancient Greek city was remotely as incorporating as this; Athens in particular rigidly restricted access to citizenship. This is not a tribute to any ‘liberal’ temperament of the Romans in the modern sense of the word. They conquered vast swathes of territory in Europe and beyond, sometimes with terrible brutality; and they were often xenophobic and dismissive of people they called ‘barbarians’. In a process unique in any pre-industrial empire, the inhabitants of those conquered territories, ‘provinces’ as Romans called them, were gradually given full Roman citizenship, and the legal rights and protections that went with it. That culminated in 212 CE (where my SPQR ends), when the emperor Caracalla made every free inhabitant of the empire a Roman citizen.

This should not be taken as a tribute to any liberal temperament today. They are also xenophobic and outright racist. This should simply be taken as a condemnation of all of the above. The DNA of what we now call Western democracy is violently exclusionary and imperially inclusive, hardly something worth preserving at all.

In many ways modern Western democracy is worse than the Roman form because, whereas in Rome “the inhabitants of those conquered territories were gradually given full Roman citizenship,” America never gave such privileges to Iraq and Afghanistan and South Korea and everybody else they conquered. Imagine what America would look like if their conquered people could vote! But nay, even the most dim level of democracy (one man, one vote) is too much for the oppression we live under. Instead, America corrupts countries with some lobotomized version of Western Democracy within, while maintaining violent and coercive control without. It's all appearances and no autonomy.

Democratic simulation hiding demonic subjugation is the state of most states under White Empire (Europe, America, same white in new bottles). People are given the appearance of democracy, with no vote or voice where the decisions are actually happening, at the rotten imperial core. And the people at the core have little say either, though they say a lot.

To the idea of White Empire, I add my other original idea, that the world is run by Corporate AI and has been since at least the 1600s. Look for who the evil we're talking about here is and it's not human at all. The power structure is wheels within wheels, leading to an ultimately corporate core, ie rule by money more than men, with artificial capital (re: AI) given free reign over a subjugated natural world. The capitalists that seem to rule are the mere automatons of the higher consciousness they call ‘the free market,’ in a long tradition of naming everything wrong. As Marx said, “Their own movement within society has for them the form of a movement made by things, and these things, far from being under their control, in fact control them.” Should any capitalist spring a conscience, their spot will be immediately plugged by another. People may speak, but money talks.

As marks the metabolic interactions of many species, the natural slaves of artificial capital just live for the byproducts, like the bacteria in our guts. The people within the imperial core do not care about imperial horror, as long as they get their treats and relatively decent treatment. Thus when these defenders of democracy talk about rights and freedoms, they merely mean their rights, their freedoms, and ultimately their privileges. When they complain about the ‘death of democracy’ the problem is not general death or lack of freedom (which has always been our lot without) but chickens coming home to roost and shitting on their own doorstep. But as Malcolm X said, chickens coming home to roost never made me sad, on the contrary, it always made me glad. So accelerate the collapse of Western democracy please, get a taste of your own medicine, and then take a dose of what's always prescribed for us. Rise up and overthrow your governments, and greet us as liberators.

The light repressions Westerners complain about are merely the diet version of the oppression their governments impose abroad. Or to the slaves, ‘illegals’ or whatever they call the underclass at home. So now you're being censored for speech? So what? America was murdering communists with death squads before you were born, on every continent. So people are being snatched off the streets, welcome to the club. US Presidents have always been given the rest of the world as a private fiefdom and thiefdom, with the decision to kill, steal, and invade now theirs alone. America itself is a stolen continent which then asserted its rights to steal wherever it wants. Don't get mad cause the thief is now at your door.

And if you're European sit down also. You're just the provinces of White Empire, if you haven't figured it out by now. White Empire is just a mass of unified, undifferentiated colonizers and settler colonizers experienced as one phenomenon. Vestigial Europeans still meddle and massacre alongside Americans, and grown-up 'Israels' like Canada and Australia tag along. A pox on all their houses, as Mercutio said, wounded under the arm of Romeo's childish belief in love. Such it is with the churlish belief in Western Democracy.

How many dead under the force of Western arms? As Romeo said, much distressed, “I thought all for the best.” So it is with the party democracy Westerners imposed on the world and themselves, while their elites have sex parties and laugh at the trick. Just let them change colors, and they are much bewitched! As Mercutio said, in the course of his dying,“A plague  o’ both your houses! They have made worms’ meat of me.” Or as I say less eloquently, who gives a shit about Western democracy? Western democracy never gave a shit about you or me.
