I'm quite capable of fending for myself as I've proven many times over the years. I hope that your not foolish enough to still think that you're speaking to a fake person who couldn't stand up to you or defeat you or kill you or accept your death or demise if needed at this point. Have you ever met one of us who are incapable of fending for ourselves? I don't mind Democracy. I've been a participant in Democracy for a long time. You seem to hate it more than me. You don't seem to like the idea of people being allowed to vote against you and the Left or vote to keep their money or vote to have more their money be used for securing borders or the military or vote for tax cuts to stimulate or revitalize the economy or vote to change trade deals that were eliminating jobs or voting to abolish abortion or school choice and so forth.
No one is an island, and that only becomes more obvious when the social structure that holds society together starts to wither or collapse outright. Do you pave your own roads, school your own children, pick-up your own trash? We only escaped living in the wilderness by working together. Feel free to return to the wilderness at any time, if you think that's better. Damn few are actually capable, so be prepared to fail.
