Drawing on the ancient legacy of the city-state, Sietze Bosman addresses how the modern democratic system forces the fundamentally different interests and lifestyle of city and countryside into a single system, generating imbalance and ultimately conflict.
This is why democracy is used as a covert tyrannical tool by the narcissistic elites at every level in our extremely toxic society. There is no peaceful or «democratic» way out of this other than dismissing the power in the system and changing the system. How is this possible when the majority of the population are brainwashed and loyal to the perpetrators and parasites at the top of the food chain? By a power outside of and greater than those evil ruling our society and the brainwashed masses.
Excellent perspective! But perhaps there is another which could remove the dichotomy: back to living within land carrying capacity, organised into self-governing bioregions. The city is not a self-contained space, and what if our industrial era conglomerates are no longer the real blueprints for our future? There is already a rich literature on the topic, John Thackera's Bioregioning, Ulrike Guérot's Europe a Republic of Regions, etc. We need to look beyond and engage in dialogue.
This would be great because the liberal cities would eventually fold in on and eat themselves. It would also be great in a world without external soft and hard power that would want to disrupt such a thing. Liberals do not want to let go of their use of rural areas and conservatives or they would fall both in military and food production.
In the US shifting agricultural subsidies and overly complex restrictions on smaller farming basically gutted entirely rural communities. Sounds like it’s what they are trying to do in Europe.
Btw this was the original purpose of the Senate in the US to give equal voice to small states as to large, though the house is by percent of population. Still didn’t last long.
This is why we need a stratocracy of the global north to allow for local places to mostly self govern. Democracy only can work on a small scale in extremely homogenous ethnos. What you are describing is the third estate wanting to live in its natural and healthy ways, while the first and second estates are destroyed by liberals and replace with bourgeoisie and shadow rule.

La cosiddetta democrazia è una invenzione del liberalismo, che ha prodotto dicotomie a non finire.
