All the political parties have the same basic outcome to work towards.

The illusion of 'left' and 'right' is there to let you think that you have had some say in the outcome - you haven't.

By voting for one side or the other you are giving your consent to be ruled by whichever wins.

They invariably taint your choice by promising some things that you agree with, but what about the things you don't agree with?

By voting for either of them you have given permission for them to do it on your behalf, because you consent to be ruled by the winner.

Conclusion - we are collectively responsible for wars
- democracy is an illusion.
