Athens

                       Harris's  >Thing<  is to remind us{somewhat incessantly} that "Democracy is fragile" and that it `requires` unrelenting Vigilance if it is to be sustained in a HEALTHY manner .    The FACT that "Democracy is fragile" elicits [in me] the STRONGEST Reaction [RE-Action] of Contempt { a SNEERING - SCOWLING Contempt} .   Why {the fuck} should we 'protect' a 'something' whose very existence depends upon UNRELENTING VIGILANCE ?   Should we not exert ourselves in an Effort to find ANOTHER System of Governance that requires LESS >>>>>>>>>> Attention ???   It strikes me that Harris and hers consider Democracy as an Infant, a something WHOLLY inappropriate given Democracy's Age [if we place its REAL infancy to the Athens of Ancient Greece] .
