“We need a rebirth of true democracy, followed by a transition to the meritocracy associated with Plato’s Republic. We need the most talented in charge, not the richest. We need a Sparta of the mind, a nation led by mental warriors who can change the world with their genius.”
Mark Romel, Theresa May: The Bankruptcy of British Politics
“In a democracy, every citizen has the absolute right to quote and challenge every statement made by the prime minister of the country given that all of us are affected by the thoughts and beliefs of that person. Theresa May, as has her speech reveals, has no vision, no clue, and no direction. She is wholly out of her intellectual depth, and so are all of her Cabinet, one of the most mediocre, bland, grey, and forgettable groups ever assembled.”
Mark Romel, Theresa May: The Bankruptcy of British Politics
“Even the “free marketâ€�, which they support so assiduously, is just another mechanism to allow the rich to bypass democracy, to be unelected and unaccountable (like the monarch). The market is merely monarchy by a new name, with the masters of the universe as the new kings.”
Mark Romel, Theresa May: The Bankruptcy of British Politics
“No one can talk about meritocracy in the UK until the monarchy has gone. This is the 21st century, for God’s sake. There is no justification for a monarchy. It symbolizes every conceivable force of anti-meritocracy and unequal opportunities: one rule for them and a different rule for everybody else. The only legitimate “monarchâ€� would be one of Plato’s philosopher kings: the non-hereditary smartest person in the country. Imagine how different the UK would be if its head of state were its most intelligent person, from any background, rather than some old German pensioner with no discernible talents whatsoever. Mark Antony said to Octavian, “You, boy, owe everything to your name.â€� Likewise, the Queen of England owes everything to her name. She has nothing else to commend her.”
Mark Romel, Theresa May: The Bankruptcy of British Politics
“In a time of crisis, the last thing that anyone needs is a centrist position ... a position of uncertainty, doubt, compromise, no clear direction, no conviction, no purpose. We are entering a revolutionary stage that requires a revolutionary response. Revolutions always come from the left or right, and never from the centre, which is the position of stasis, the status quo, business as usual. It’s the position for the fearful.”
Mark Romel, Theresa May: The Bankruptcy of British Politics
“It’s not a day we have to seize, it’s an era. We need a revolution, not a sticking plaster over a gaping wound. As Nietzsche said, we must revalue all values. We must redefine capitalism and change it from free-market capitalism (designed to serve globalists), to social capitalism (designed to serve all the citizens of the nation). We need to remove the plutocratic boot from the neck of democracy. We must seek to build a true meritocracy in a society free of monarchs, dynastic families, privilege, inheritance, cronyism and nepotism.”
