Problem with populism.



Donald Trump made the thing that nobody predicted. He refused to accept the result of the presidential elections. And then his supporters marched to congress house. His example inspires many other leaders, and the last case was in Brazil, where supporters of a lost candidate demand a coup d'état. That thing is an example of a very dangerous path that can cost lives. When the candidate who seems more popular in eyes of some people loses, the next thing is violence. 

The reason for that violence is that the presidential candidate promised work or something like that to people. And when that person. Would not elect, people feel that they left without a job. Many people who are following populists believe in strong leadership. And they believe that the president can give jobs to them. Many times a populist candidate can say that a clear majority is behind that person. 

That will boost the message, and because nobody says that are those things even in the presidential jurisdiction, that means there are only things that support that candidate. And then if the election will not happen, that thing is easy to explain as that competitor stole those votes. And people who have no education believe those things.  

But then we must realize that populism is one of the things. That brings votes to people, who just want a large number of votes and a good job. Populism is the term that means leaders promising simple and kinetic things for people. 

In some practical examples term "populism" means that the candidate promises to work for people or simply asks what people want. And if those people are lost, the next step is hate and anger. People feel that they lost their jobs. The idea of populism is that the candidate just wants to please the great majority. In that kind of politics, the benefit of the majority is the thing, that leaders must follow. 

The message of populists is simple. Minorities are born to serve the majority. There is no problem with democracy. But when we think about ethical aspects. Those kinds of things are very embarrassing. In the world of populists, the only interesting person is the elector. 

Populists are many times very charismatic and colorful people. So they are giving good news to the media. And those people "dare to talk straight". So they are making very interesting headings. And that increases people's interest in their politics. 

That means only people who are part of the majority or who have some kind of permission have the right to get an education that gives the right to a higher degree education. And that reserves the higher ranks in offices only to people who please those populists. The thing is that populists are very good to benefit things like social media. They are talking about things that are visible everywhere. 

Street gangs and other things are things that populists mention as an illness of society. Street gangs are symptoms of social inequality. Some reason for those gans is jealousy. The gang members are jealous of other people. And that makes them sometimes violent. Street gangs are things that are symptoms. And they are good tools in the hands of populists. 

But they are promising medicine that is very easy. Increase the number of border guards, and other kinds of things are also offering workplaces. Kicking foreigners out of the country seems a good and simple solution. And the new border guards are offering new jobs in the minds of some supporters who are supporting populists.

What makes populists so popular?

 What makes populists so popular?



If we are thinking the politics there is always the possibility. That the politician will start to follow some very noisy. But a small marginal group. The small marginal groups are many times boosting their agenda with weapons. And that is the reason why I should put the image of R-4 carbine at the top of this text. Guns are the things that guarantee publicity. And those things also guarantee authority for the people who carry them. But in this case, I will not put the image of the weapon in that place. 

The reason for that is he tells people what they want to hear. Same way as other populists he has an explanation for everything. The reason for that thing is the "political elitists". That imaginational group is denying people to think what they want. And the thing that makes Trump somehow terrible is that he plays the same game with marginal groups. The thing that makes marginal groups frightening is that they are boosting their agenda and opinions with weapons. 

And those weapons are, of course, in the main role of that kind of people demonstrations. The reason why regular people want to "respect" Trump. Is that he uses a very interesting way to act.  The official part of the supporters of Trump is using very controlled language. But the people who are not the "official part" use death threats people who are "on their way". Of course, those threats are published in newspapers. And of course, Trump has nothing to do with anger. That his supporters feel. 

The people who are working in the field are in a great role. If somebody shoots them that thing rises martyrs in the hands of Trumpists. There is, of course, forgotten that some of those "demonstrators" who are angry, because their man did not get in White House because that man got too few votes carried guns.

The description of the disinformation is that is misinformation that somebody delivers on purpose. The modern electronic networks guarantee that also disinformation is spreading very fast. There are four things about disinformation. 

1) We should afraid of disinformation


2) And also deliverers of disinformation can claim that real, confirmed information is disinformation. 


3) Everybody can deliver disinformation


4) Making sure that something is disinformation can be harder than people ever imagine. 


x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x


Riots are stressful situations. And those situations make weapons more dangerous than they normally are. 


The case of Kyle Rittenhouse is a good example of how weapons are used as a threat. 18 years old boy shoots two demonstrators by using an automatic rifle. And the court released him. Rittenhouse claimed that those victims threat him. The thing is that if Rittenhouse's victims were black. 

That thing could cause racial demonstrations or even riots. Riots are stressful situations. And Kyle Rittenhouse is a young man without any experience and training to face any kind of violence. The gun in the hands of that kind of man in a stressful situation is always dangerous. 

But Rittenhouse shot white men. The situation was a riot that began in the case that police shot a black man who resisted arresting. Both black and white politicians want sometimes benefit from the situations where a white cop shoots a black person. 

Or the thing is that in the modern US politics is seen the dangerous polarization. There is enough for people who want to make politics with those things. The white cop shoots a black man. And that is the reason for the riot. The cops are racists, and then that thing causes the counter riots. In every riot is people who want just steal property. 


There could be professional criminals who provocate riots for causing disorders. Those people are breaking windows and stealing property by using that kind of riot as a mask. 


The stories of purpose provocation in the cases of riots or "Agent provocateurs" might begin from the professional criminals who provocate riots for causing disorder. Then those people will kick windows of the shops in, and steal things that they want. There are also stories that the members of the Ku Klux Klan are taken apart in some national rights demonstrations for provocating riots. But the coordination of that kind of action is not proven. 

That black man was of course, unarmed. That is the truth that is told in the media. Until somebody thought that there was a gun. That thing can explode the situation. 

The fact is that the attitude of policemen might be so-called "overloaded". When the media and superiorities are telling stories about the high crime records, crack houses, and homes full of weapons in those areas. 

That thing causes that the police is seeing those areas as more dangerous than normal people. And then they are "seeing weapons" more often than normal people. 


That thing causes a dangerous situation and if somebody yells "gun" that means law enforcement might feel that the other people are in danger. And then they open fire. There is a possibility that if the arrested person has a gun. And that is drop to somewhere some other person like a drug dealer or drug user will simply pick that gun from the streets.

The thing is that if there are people around with assault weapons "protecting their property" causes stress to cops who don't know why those people are surrounding them. Riots are always a stressful situation and the possibility that there is a gun in the pockets of rioters causes stress to law enforcement. But when rioters are armed with assault weapons. The stress is very high. There is needed only a small reason And the entire situation turns to the massacre. 

They cannot know are those people in the same gang as the person they try to arrest. Or when the attitudes of the cops are fully loaded to face violence when trainers are telling about shootings and media is full of mass shootings that thing can cause the situation that some cop will open fire. The thing that makes cops more willing to use guns is the personal threat. If there is some threat calls to the telephones of the cops can cause that the cop to "see guns" more often than usual. 


The death threats are causing violence. 


Another thing that the people who are playing the "non-official" line of the supporters of Trump are telling about the threats and other things like post packages full of shit to newspapers. The message of those people is simple.  "If you are against us, you will get lots of shit in your life". This means that people who are against Trump should be quiet. 

The thing is that publicity about things like death threats is the thing that is used for pressurizing people to be quiet about things like weaponized right-wing nationalists whose mission in this kind of theater is to bring force for people who believe populists. And the thing that populists are offering is "strong leadership" and "great nation". 

The thing that is making those things very dramatic and also addictive. Is that those people are offering something concrete for their followers. That thing is the assault weapon with great respect. The weapons are carried in the demonstrations against the police. And that thing makes those situations very stressful.

The problematic situation of Hong Kong

The problematic situation of Hong Kong

Hong Kong causes very much problems with international trade and political environment. The thing is that those riots are turning the eye of the World to the internal politics of China. The thing, what makes this situation very complicated is that many corporations are manufacturing their products in China. And the thing what is also making this case even more complicated is the internal political situation in the USA.

President Donald Trump is preparing for the next election campaign for the second period in the office of the White House. The thing what people are requesting from that man is the strong leadership in this kind of cases. The problem is that Trump is making many people angry, because of his attitude to research what is touching his relationship with the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin.

The last episode in the case of Donald Trump and his relationship with other presidents is asking help from the President of Ukraine for collecting data what is touching his competitor in the presidential election campaign. This kind of things is bad for campaigns of leaders of every state. But when this kind of mess is connected with things like Cambridge Analytics and influencing the election campaigns in the USA and why not in Russia and China, as well as in many other nations. The purpose of those campaigns is that they can be used for selecting people to the position of the head of the state, who will scatter the international communities like NATO, and this kind of things would serve the benefit of Russia.

One of the visions is that the EU would leave alone against Russia. And the tactics what Russia uses is that they are starting to scare other nations with their nuclear weapons. That thing is hoped to give an excuse for the leaders to give up the Russians. And the thing what makes that propaganda very effective is that there is highlighted the strong leadership and the position, where nobody can investigate and prosecute them, along with masculine military rule, where rights of minorities are always fastened to attitudes of majority. And of course, that kind of things are spiced with nationality and military parades.

And when we are returning to the Hong Kong conflict, we must understand that western leaders have always highlighted the importance of democratic advantage in the global environment. This means that the Hong Kong situation would be quite embarrassing for many leaders in the western world. The thing that the Internet brings that situation with riots and police lines in the front of eyes of the normal people, who gives votes to them is making those things more complicated than ever before.

We cannot just whip those things like single-party governments what are ruling by using massive police control away from the public eye. And even if the international laws would not touch those governments, the internal political pressure in western nations would be strong to reassessment for the trade- and other politics between those nations, what are ruling some state another side of the world.

Western World and problematic relationship with China

Western World and problematic relationship with China

China is the biggest economic area in the world and that makes it very good and wanted trade company, but there is one problem with that nation. The one-party system and the governments' attitude to freedoms of speech and other democratic things are causing problems with the relationship with that country and other nations.

When we are thinking about the riots or protests in Hong Kong and political arrests of that country, those things could be easy to keep away from the public, but the Social media like Twitter and other solutions causes, that information flees from authorities. The problem is that authorities have no time to search every single E-mail, and the foreign companies must have access to communicate over the national firewall.

But even if China would be closed, the memory cards are easy to carry out from the country, and that data can be published in the social media, and the thing what makes that kind of actions very hard to control is that those names, what is used in those social media accounts and homepages can look like normal western names. So the authorities cannot find out, that behind those accounts is some Chinese people. The problem with that kind of things is that the persons, who are taking apart of that kind of things are using the same methods, what the Russian and Chinese government uses in their propaganda campaigns.

The thing in those social media accounts is that they can be used to deny the western company leaders entrance to China, and the system works that the normal social media account is opened for the name of the director or journalist. Then somebody starts to publish the information, what might damage the relationship with that country and China, and the official truth goes.

The things like supporting the opposition might cause the denying of the visa, and that means the factory must establish to some other country. The thing why the Chinese government wants to get western technological industry in their country is that they wish to get the same time access to the western electronic components, what they can use for the surveillance operations.

This kinds of things are necessary for the new kind of weapon aiming and other kinds of systems, which can be used for tracking people. The thing is that information is a powerful weapon, and that makes the complicated world even more complicated than ever before.

The thing is that leaders in the democratic world must listen, people, who are giving votes to them. If they are not pleased the voters, the place in the parliament goes to some other person, and that means that the pictures of the riots and use of force are not looking good in media, and sooner or later so-called official media must say something about the images, where tanks are standing against protesters.
