“Modern ‘democracy’ in the West is a bastardization of medieval feudalism in which serfs labor under the delusion that they actually voted to be vassals of the State.  From time to time — especially when unworthy ‘lords’ have caused widespread misery — the serfs begin to remember that it is they who are rightly lords over their own lives and that the State is meant to be in vassalage to their will and authority.  When ‘elites’ decry ‘populism,'” they are really ringing alarm bells for other ‘elites’ to hear.  It is the surest sign of ‘ruling class’ fear that the people have begun to wake up from their slumber only to discover their own imprisonment.”
