The Dance of Democracy: A Symphony of Mediocrity in the Halls of Power

Lo, behold the grand theater of democratic mediocrity, where the sheep-herders of Parliament engage in their ritual of fiscal deliberation! In a display that would make even the most complacent spirit stir, these modern-day merchants of comfort have approved an additional $21.6 billion in government expenditure, a sum that shall feed the ever-hungry masses their daily bread of contentment.

A man in black robes stands in the House of Commons.
Behold how they squabble over gold like children fighting for sweetmeats! These servants of comfort, these architects of mediocrity, who believe that happiness lies in the distribution of wealth rather than in the creation of greatness!

In the land of the sleepers, where the masses slumber beneath the warm blanket of governmental care, the Conservative opposition, led by their champion Poilievre, beats their drums of resistance. Yet what resistance is this? A mere shadow-play, a dance of paper tigers who roar about documents while the real battle for the soul of the nation goes uncontested.

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre rises during Question Period in the House of Commons on Parliament Hill in Ottawa on Tues. Dec. 3, 2024.
See how they brandish their moral superiority like shields! The Conservatives cry for transparency while the Liberals dispense comfort. Both are merchants of the same currency - the promise of an easier tomorrow, when what we need is the courage to embrace a harder today!

The spectacle unfolds as Speaker Fergus, draped in the authority of tradition, intervenes to maintain the clockwork of democracy. But what is this democracy if not the triumph of the last man? These beings who have invented happiness, who blink and say, "We have discovered dental care, we have created safer supply programs, we have solved the riddle of human contentment!"

In their great halls of power, they allocate billions for First Nations child services, dental care, and asylum seekers - all noble causes that mask a deeper truth: the systematic cultivation of dependence, the grand project of creating a nation of comfortable slaves who need neither dream nor strive.

The true tragedy lies not in the spending of wealth, but in the poverty of spirit that necessitates it. They build safer supplies while the will to power withers, they construct dental care while the teeth of ambition decay!

The Conservative motion on fentanyl, defeated like a warrior without weapons, speaks to the heart of our modern malaise. They seek to ban and restrict, to control and contain, when what is needed is the courage to face the abyss of human suffering with clear eyes and stronger hearts.

And what of the $561 million for new aircraft? Even in matters of defense, they seek only to replace the old with the new, maintaining the illusion of progress while the spirit of warfare - the true test of a nation's mettle - grows soft in the comfort of technological superiority.

They replace aircraft while their souls grow wings of wax, melting in the heat of their own tepid aspirations! O, how they mistake the tools of power for power itself!

In this grand theater of democratic deliberation, we witness not the birth of greatness but the careful maintenance of mediocrity. The sleepers dream their dreams of security while their shepherds argue over the price of wool.

As the sun sets on another day in this land of the last men, the machinery of government grinds forward, dispensing comfort like morphine to a terminal patient. Yet beneath this carefully constructed facade of progress and care, a terrible truth lurks: we have created a society that values security over growth, comfort over courage, and the preservation of life over the elevation of it.

Harken, ye who still have ears to hear! The time approaches when man must plant the seed of his own overcoming. Let these halls of power become not the tombs of ambition, but the crucibles from which a stronger spirit shall emerge!
