“The Voting Sonnet

Why should you vote you ask,
Since it changes nothing!
And nothing will change,
By acting the indifferent weakling.
If you want things to change,
Support character not charisma.
Trash all your populist snobbery,
And it'll abolish all political miasma.
Politics is manipulation,
But it is so due to your gullibility.
Seek out the leader with backbone,
Only then there'll be hope for humanity.
But if you find not a leader of character,
Arise and be the one you seek here and there.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Boldly Comes Justice: Sentient Not Silent

If a society makes the right decision in the election, it means its IQ level is high! So, what is the right decision? If the government you have chosen has enriched your nation as a whole without harming other nations, if it has discarded armament and aimed at disarmament, if it has increased freedom, eliminated irrational belief systems and promoted reason and science, then the decision is very correct!”

“Question your rulers
when they seek wars in foreign lands,
when their priorities appear to be serving other than the national interest,
when their citizens’ welfare doesn’t make it to their top list...
(...)
Question them and do not be afraid, for they live the good life from your hard work and sacrifices that have brought them to their thrones of power.

Question them and also yourselves, for if their actions defy their promises to serve, and their deeds challenge your moral and human values, you should stand up for what is just and right.”
― Claudys Kantara, Rebel Thoughts of Wisdom: Inspiring Conscious Change for Personal & Collective Growth
