Violence is at the core of all political systems

[nobox]

Even the democratic political systems resort to implicit violence at its core, no less than any other forms of governments. The reason is simple, violence is a universal language that is understood by biological entities. This is a common denominator. It is also the ultimate evolution/competition force. So violence deserves its central role in shaping human history and political systems.

It is somewhat obvious but carefully disguised by all political establishments.

Today we denounce violence employed by 'terrorists'. We should. But on the other hand unfortunately we have to put it in the context discussed above.

Resistance to violence.

 

 

That doesn't answer either question.

I get the feeling you're talking around some other issue, because your OP seems deliberately provocative yet vague. You should just come out and say what you want to say. No offense, please, but whatever you're talking about has been so "carefully disguised" that "somewhat obvious" drove right past.

Decipher please questions of OP.

[Strange]

Decipher please questions of OP.

 

How does he define "violence".

I guess this is going to be yet another thread where nobox says something obviously wrong ("but it's out of the box so it must be insightful") and then refuses to justify or explain it.
