Only someone with a soviet thinking can come up with such scenario, probably an American journalist that never missed a meal in his life, that never lived in a trully opressive system would come with such an idea. Authoritarianism for the greater good. I heard that tape lots of times.
I would argue that an important freedom that we have at our disposal is the power NOT to vote in the West. Just take a look at some of your choices, Trump, Bernie, etc. You should be grateful to have this freedom to abstain from such low intellect and propagandistic choices.
Agree. Ne pas choisir, c'est toujours choisir. Ne pas voter, c'est toujours voter. No chosing, is still chosing. Not voting, is still voting. I hold that even when one doesnt vote, of their own volition of course, they have still voted: they voted not to vote. Even when I vote, I usually only vote on items I understand and leave the rest blank
