As a communist, born and formed in Marxist ideologies, I can only hope that democracy survives the incessant onslaught from the dictators who usurp power in the name of Communism, Religion or so-called ‘democracy' which is actually "Mobocracy".

Politicians can change their colors in just a blink of an eye. A brilliant take on the intricacies of politics and the nature of politicians.

Meloni is a chameleon. Most of the far right are. Please see how many colours Itmar Ben Guir has attired. And how many les make the devils called Trump, Modi and Hitler, the mobocratics"

Mobocracy rules. So do ‘moneycracy' and hypocrisy. When I see this, I shudder, but I fight. But, as of today, I see no light at the end of the tunnel. Thank You, Rose.

Interesting and informative. Sometimes I guess left is right. We see more humanity in leftists.

I am a communist, right from my younger days. But the problem is that whoever swear by Marx today, are core capitalists and can even be called fascists and they indulge in large-scale corruption and nepotism. The dictators in China, North Korea et al They are not communists.

PoemHunter plays truant with our patience. Happened many a times with me. What I do now is, before clicking the "post" button, I copy the message, in case it is too, long.

Hi Krish, I agree with you but what can we do about it. Putin is the scary one in Ukraine. I now have a press card and could go there to report on to, but what's the point. It won't stop it. We are but flotsam in an ocean of political mayhem.

You are right David. But there is something we Must Do. In India too, the rise to power by the Far Right is vitiating our social fabric and inhibiting economic Growth.

2. As person from the press, you would recollect that the present pm, Modi was denied entry to the US, for his role in the 2002 atrocities against Muslims in Gujarat. Rightly so. But, he was re-elected to power, in the next hustings.

3. he was re-elected to power, in the next hustings. Non-Muslims voted him. He capitalised on the Islamophobia of non-Muslims to rise as pm of the nation in 2014. Exactly as Hitler did in Germany.

I know it does not augur well for the nation, nor for the world altogether. We continue our work against this. But he continues his. And he wins
