Constitutional state and populism

Constitutional state and populism



Populists say that independent justice system would not serve democracy, because judges are living far away from reality. Normally the argument for that is that judges make solutions, which is not in the line with common opinion. In many arguments, the judge is the government official, whose mission is to serve the state as well as the police organization. And sometimes I have heard opinions that when the prosecution has been raised against foreign people, those people just should kick off from the country because the legal proceedings are just a waste of money. 

That kind of argumentation is sometimes very effective for the "regular people", who have not have to see things, what they don't want to see. And this kind of thing the argument about the laws, what are criminalizing things like homosexuality and another kind of that, whom person self cannot effect. 

But do you know, why we have a court system? Its mission is to deny the police and government officials make crimes. If we would not have neutral trials, where also persecuted people have a chance to defend themselves, the officials would try to put their illegal acts to other people's fault. 

The thing in the populism is that it is a very good tool in the hands of the politicians. We must remember that the destruction of the Warsaw Pact caused the new kind of information technology, which allowed people to communicate with together without state control. 

And new popular politicians revolutionize democracy. But that advantage continues, and the problem in the ex-eastern block nations is that there has ever been a democracy. People are grown for respecting or rather saying obey the government, and they have ever been in the world, where the politician is the same kind of person as they are. 

They are not adjusted to the public decision-making process, and because of the rights like gathering are new, the politicians use that kind of thing for making their position stronger. When we are thinking about people's relationship with governments, we are seeing one very interesting thing, and that is that police is more confessing in the eyes of the people than some judge, who gives the convictions in the closed rooms. 

In the past, some people had an attitude, that when police arrested people, that person was convicted at the same moment. The model was taken from Mickey Mouse cartoon, where police take criminals to prison right away when they are put to the handcuffs. This is the problem with publicity. When the police would arrest people, the interest in the case ends. People thought that the person was convicted right away, and they were ever returned. 

This happened in countries like Finland, where the press was free, at least if we would compare the situation to the Eastern block. And in Eastern block the political arresting caused that people believe, that police ever made mistakes. In fact, in some criminal cases, the officials raised two prosecutions, another was about normal crime, and the second one was a political crime like agitation. And the person left to jail anyway, what made sure that police must ever confess that it makes mistakes.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
