TESTEMONAIL: Right and Discordianism allows room for personal interpretation. You have your theories and I have mine. Unlike Christianity, Discordia allows room for ideas and opinions, and mine is well-informed and based on ancient philosophy and theology, so, my neo-Discordian friends, open your minds to my interpretation and I will open my mind to yours. That's fair enough, right? Just claiming to be discordian should mean that your mind is open and willing to learn and share ideas. You guys are fucking bashing me and your laughing at my theologies and my friends know what's up and are laughing at you and honestly this is my last shot at putting a label on my belief structure and your making me lose all hope of ever finding a ideological group I can relate to because you don't even know what the fuck I'm talking about and everything I have said is based on the founding principals of real Discordianism. Expand your mind.

I would like to point out the Black Panthers.
It has been tried. You need a critical mass, though, sufficient that militarizing the people into dirt becomes something of an economic and political problem.
The vast majority of Americans I have met are fundamentally hateful, greedy, jealous, xenophobic pieces of shit. And I've been all over the USA. Some of these people are overcoming their worse impulses, some are just keeping them out of sight, but the average person on the street is terrible at their core.
That means those who do give a fuck aren't willing to throw everything away so they can be shot by the Feds and used as an excuse to demonize the other people like them.

All governments are democracies. No government ever existed except by virtue of the fact that the people it ruled didn't rise up and tear it down.
Democracy implies distributed control, which is distinct from general consent.
If all governments were democracies, then the term itself would be meaningless, for there would be no distinction to be made.
