I artikkelen "Sweden's 19th aid package for Ukraine: Sweden will eventually become a third world country...", TFF • Transnational Foundation & Jan Oberg, 2025-03-31 hevder Jan Oberg at Sverige ikke lenger er et demokrati, men et kakistokrati; dvs. styre av de mest korrupte og udugelige.
Jeg har observert det samme i Norge og de fleste vestlige "demokratier"…‽
Man har dessuten kleptokrati, dvs. styre av tyver, og vi har kombinasjonen kakistokleptokrati, dvs. en styreform der de mest udugelige og korrupte "styrer" mens de raner samfunnets verdier til seg selv og sine slektninger og venner…‽

“The oppressed are allowed once every few years to decide which particular representatives of the oppressing class are to represent and repress them.”
― Karl Marx (1818-1883)
”People do not expect to find chastity in a whorehouse. Why, then, do they expect to find honesty and humanity in government, a congeries of institutions whose modus operandi consists of lying, cheating, stealing, and if need be, murdering those who resist?”
– H.L. Mencken (1880-1956)
“Absolute power does not corrupt absolutely, absolute power attracts the corruptible.”
― Frank Herbert (1920-1986)
"All governments suffer a recurring problem: Power attracts pathological personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the corruptible."
― Frank Herbert (1920-1986)
"Governments, if they endure, always tend increasingly toward aristocratic forms. No government in history has been known to evade this pattern. And as the aristocracy develops, government tends more and more to act exclusively in the interests of the ruling class— whether that class be hereditary royalty, oligarchs of financial empires, or entrenched bureaucracy."
― Frank Herbert (1920-1986)
"The mistakes (of leaders) are amplified by the numbers who follow them without question. Charismatic leaders tend to build up followings, power structures and these power structures tend to be taken over by people who are corruptible. I don't think that the old saw about 'power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely' is accurate: I think power attracts the corruptible."
― Frank Herbert (1920-1986)
