Ask thyself, Who rules us? One may suggest it is the governor, the president, the minister, the prime ruler. One may say the people, the voices, the many.
Very good, but the answer is both. And it is where this deadly cycle started, the failure for us to cooperate between the government and the people.
Let us begin with the central idea, convey this in your mind: The ruler was elected from the people, and the ruler molds the people. What does this mean?
Suppose: a group of dye chauvinists, we willl name the Dychas. This group has a single leader, and many members, with some advisors to advise the best rules for the fellow dyers who 'supposedly' hears from the people. This makes the group an autocratic 'democracy'.
Suppose: The leader of the Dychas decreed: All dyers shall love the color red. There may be some protestors, but we will talk of them in the next scripture. What we will suppose, is that all protestors were exiled, and all Dychas say yes to the color red. Sounds easy.
Suppose: That there might be some Dychas who like the color blue, but they didn't protest. They only grumble. But after times, after they have kids and descendants, their kids fall to the propagandic decree, and went on to love the color red.
Suppose: The old leader of the Dychas died! O how miserable! A new leader has to be appointed! After the appointment, it is required to decree a new law to love a color. What color do you think would the new leader decree to be loved? I suppose it can be green or blue, but the chances will be very small, and it will be very hard to manage a lot of protests from red patriots.
And thus the cycle was set. The first leader decreed the color red, and the people elected the person who loves the color red in turn. They already are fond of the color red. There might be some Dychas who slowly became bored with the color red, but the majority still wins. We will talk of this later.
Suppose then, to be clearer: The leader molded the people to love 'this thing', and those poor brainwashed people, they prefer the person who likes the 'this thing' to be elected. Might it be decrees or laws, it is the same. The protesters can either be punished, or to be more subtle, be bribed or threatened.
The next scripture is going to be about the protests of the people.
