No Alternative to DEMOCRACY

Well, it appears that I forgot to imply that I am against ABSOLUTE TYRANNY as well. But I assume I did not imply for it either. Perhaps assumption is the name of the game. There can not be any argument that democracy in the real sense is the best available system. But my point have always been, let us not pretend dummy that the democracy, BOUGHT (mind you, NOT brought/earned), by these pathetic moral less political figures would, if anything but better than the previous ones. Are we to believe that these ghastly figures who are nothing but disgusting poltergeists, will or can be sidelined once the democracy will be restored on paper ( in practice will take time ), or are we supposed to trust them and give them another chance to ridicule or sense of believing? Now, moving on to the correction part, it is indeed true that people's mandate has the ultimate moral and actual power and lasting effect. But the democracy we would have under these crooks would not be far from what we had in the past, after all, an apple do not fall far from the tree. And these apples are all from the tree of corruption, ineptness, and opportunism. When we know the end notes of the fragile democracy which would be abused YET again by the very people, how long would it take for the people to garnish their resolution to make yet another fight back? My common sense tells me that, the very reason people are not actually fighting for democracy bar some self acclaimed revolutionists and the very political parties and their 'bhada ko tattus', is because they have absolute to trust on these leaders. NADA. Let's say by miracle, the leaders brings democracy (which is unlikely), and knowing them, would they not misuse it? God forbid, if they, in their self interest would screw us again, can you imagine how long it would take for Nepalese to stand up, let alone make another stab on the iron fisted absolutism? My simple question is, why keep the part that have cancer, when it is neither essential nor sensible when we can very well cut that part and then start the rehabilitation? Freewill, by the people, for the people and all that are important, but TIME demands action, and the action has to come from, us, in our conscience which would be channelized in physical action PROVIDED the parties can lead the way and show us that they are for real. And to do that they have to ABSOLUTELY get rid of those chor, daku, inept and by and large, disgusting good for nothing so called leaders. This is a FACT based in realism, which any one can sense by mere random observation. Denying this, and then grouching and standing on the idealism approach towards the current scenario would obviously sound better ON PAPER, but alas, on paper it is. People's sentiments (allow me to make a general statement, with due acceptance and respect for any rebuttal whatsoever), in their silence and no movement ignoring the (even) the calls of our largely UNDEMOCRATIC parties who are fighting FOR DEMOCRACY (Ironic. Is it not?), is evidence enough that, people want action/apologies, and total shake up within the parties. They want to see that parties would discard and punish their leader, irrespective of their status. BAR this, democracy will come, not because these parties fought (or is it natakbaji) for it, but because dada from palace will yet again donate them. For the common people, it is like, "whose father, what vitamin?" Astu. IndisGuise:)
