While this is mostly true, I disagree on the core point. The problem is the moronic masses. When the masses become stupid enough, then the sociopathic elite take over. There is a natural alliance between the sociopathic elite and the moronic masses, which is why America's founders thought universal suffrage is a horrible idea. They learned this lesson from Roman history.

But actually this is no longer relevant since the population has become so stupid that there isn't even a significant minority of non-morons left to form a reasonable electorate. It is time to bail out of Western culture.

    Why almost all successful populations in history become morons is a complicated question. My thoughts on this are here.
