I recently saw a headline: ‘Hong Kong activists clash with Beijing anti-democracy activists.’ Isn’t it weird how someone could be anti-democracy?

‘Don’t be stupid, of COURSE I don’t want a say in how my country works. I can’t be trusted! If you give me the keys to the country, I’ll just give everyone the day off and make all the beer free. No thank you, democracy. Instead, I want my mate Steve to run the country. And more than that, I want him to whip me and disappear all my family if I disobey him. It’s the only way to make this country great again.’
