RE: Just So We're Clear - The Tech Manager of Steemit Is Anti Democracy and Pro Oligarchy - in His Own Words.

I see his point. If you're gonna have a state, you need people to run it.
It can be a huge group of stupid people or a smaller group of cunning people.
Democracy is just another flavour of tyranny.

Sort:  

The deep state specifically refers to spies, manipulators, mind controllers and is basically formed up on the judgement that 'we know best' so we're going to do your thinking for you. I don't see much evidence that the 'deep state' are not 'the stupid people'.

You and sneak may be running under different definitions of the deep state perhaps?
I always imagined it as the army of unelected suits who write the rules for the politicians to rubber-stamp.
