You wouldn't democratically elect an airline pilot.
>>489090294Are you telling me a typical American politician has more talent and capabilities than an airline pilot?Get the fuck out of here.I honestly think there’s been a long running PsyOp to depict politicians as morons in Hollywood, it has had detrimental effects too.
>>489090294i would download a bear though
>>489090708they stream the bear from cloud servers now
>>489090819>not torrenting the bearngmi
>>489090951You can't, that's why they opted out for streaming everything in the first place.
>>489090294>the captain and co-pilot are dead from nerve gas does anyone on this plane have flying experience?yes you would
>>489090708Can we fuck the bear?
>>489091272kek
>>489090294the passangers get what they deserve.cry about it.
>>489090294truei never said i supported democracy tho
>>489090294The free market is democracy dumbass
>>489090294No, but I would elect representatives to enact legislation to ensure the competence of airline pilots.
>>489091272uh oh
>>489090294You shouldn't democratically elect anyone. America was founded as a republic where land owning farmers had most of the say and voting was debated as even being desirable or necessary.
>>489090294>You wouldn't democratically elect an airline pilot.I would, but I'd select my candidates. Barring that I'd choose a random person for the lulz.
>>489091486They knew what they were getting into
>>489090294Best political statement on /pol/, ever
>>489090294Anchorage Alaska elected an Alaska Airlines pilot as mayor during covid because he said he would force restaurants to open, except they reopened naturally before he was sworn inHe went on to shutoff fluoride during a perfunctory tour of the water treatment plant, and get a bunch of miga's to wear a star of David as a sign of political persecution by the local library
>>489090294Yes i would, the level of vetting they go through is second to only astronauts go check out "mentour pilot" on jewtube, he is a instructor and he explains the intensity of scrutiny they are subjected to
>>489091422depends how brave your are
>>489090294Good pointDemocracy is a circus, it ends whenever there's a serious business
>>489090294You vote with your wallet, genius
that's great, can you show me the technical evaluative process for political leadership?i'll wait
>>489105398>Anchorage Alaska elected an Alaska Airlines pilot >as mayor
>>489105920Ask China
>>489090294If the passengers elect a shitty pilot they all deserve to die.
>>489090294I wouldn't hire a woman of color as an airline pilot either.
>>489105955OP didn't specify the role, just the occupation.
>>489090294I'd democratically elect a street sweeper if he vowed to exterminate the jews.
>>489090294I would elect a cat
>>489105985before the pig iron or after?
>>489090294This discussion was already had in Plato's Republic.A doctor knows about medicine, so you wouldn't ask a doctor how to make horseshoes, just like you wouldn't ask a blacksmith how to perform heart surgery.The leadership caste must be selected through a series of rigorous tests early in life so they can be specially trained for the functions of statecraft.The good thing about democracy is that everyone has a voice.The bad thing about democracy is that every idiot has a voice.
>>489106067After, obviously. Duh.
>>489090294I would if he called out the jews.
>>489105856I was thinking about it lately.Democracy seem to be a peace-time system where there is no critical issues, a first world system in a way.Every time war is at the menu, the democracies suspend liberties and turn authoritarian, if temporarily, because the system is too sluggish and divided to take quick and decisive actions in time of urgency.Career politician is a problem also, it is the cause of much of the bullshit happening in democracies.
>>489090575>to depict politicians as morons in HollywoodIf the shoe fits, kick it up an ass.
>>489106075>The good thing about democracy is that everyone has a voice.>The bad thing about democracy is that every idiot has a voice.The only problem with democracy is that most people are retarded.One of the reasons is genetic, low IQ monkeys and little can be done about it.However, the other reason - and a pretty big one - is that those midwits are additionally indoctrinated so maybe Plato should have said that the well educated population (or well informed, better said) is just as if not more important.Even a midwit will see the light when he has an access to unbiased and accurate information.The insistence on voting for a candidate only from dems or reps is one of stupid things in America, for example.Afaik only 8M Americans don't fall for that
>>489106263Also note how a leader is supposed to likely have an unpopular opinion because he should know better than the voters but all those guys who went on Rogan (because I don't follow politics that much) are very cautious and intimidated by voters and they basically pander to voters, Tulsi is as hollow as a church bell and Trump is also a massive cuck.
