A government who brings justice and opportunities for its society. I could care less if its worldwide or local government.
@jamahir I want more local/provincial govt and less centralization of power.
But I dont want to be ruled by a world govt. I want to be ruled by local govt (say Govt of London if I am living in london).
your points are very reasonable... and that is what "jamahiriya" direct-democracy ( third universal theory ) really is... jamahiriya is a simple arrangement of society... self-governance at local level by local people, where decisions are taken by consensus ( common agreement ), as long as those agreements do not conflict with common sense and justice... and everyone in that area must compulsarily participate in decison-making... credo of socialism... one who produces, can consume... so everyone in a jamahiriya locality is a political participant.... this is like the "residents welfare association" arrangements in indian towns, and i suppose, elsewhere in the world... only more scientific and democratic.
a jamahiriya city ( london, say ) is made up of such self-governing areas, a jamahiriya society is made up of such self-governing cities... and this can be scaled up to include all humanity... for administrative purposes, there may be jamahiriya regions.
the "top levels" will ensure that decisions in all jamahiriya places ( localities and cities ) are in line with socialism... the "top levels" will also ensure that contribution by one person will reach everyone, without anyone monopolizing or hoarding anything... "an open source society", if i can use the computing term.
for more simple detail... ( The Green Book - I ), section "popular conferences and people's committees".
add to all this the abolishment of money system... and like @Akheilos hinted above... and this is truly needed, the abolishment of the traditional "family" system, because loyalty must be towards all members of society, not just for someone called "parents" or "spouse" or "children" or "relatives"... all must be equally cared for, yes??... but we can start with abolishing money... that itself will remove many inequalities and oppressions.
what was achieved in the libyan jamahiriya in 1969 can be exceeded now elsewhere, yes??
what we will thus achieve is a scientific and truly communist society... it can be achieved within a few years by committed revolutionaries who use their talents, contacts and positions... i am already a participant...
I understand you consider nationalism as divisive, something that takes a lot of resource (and weapons) to maintain. I agree. At citizen level, am less nationalist, and feel more global citizen.
global citizen, citizen of the world, citizen of humanity... that is the most natural state for us...
But let me guess, all of my links are just proof of "Lies and Western propaganda", yes?
quite so... as saddam hussain said in 2003... the uno is really "united nations of america"... your links to western mainstream media... and to "amnesty international" and "human rights watch"... those two organizations are cia fronts for disinfo and were instrumental, along with unhrc, in forwarding the case for nato invasions of libya and syria, and for long they called for actions against venezuela, russia and of course, the democratic people's republic of korea.
who won the nobel "peace" prize for 2011?? who promoted the winners??
North Korea's brutality, her atrocities, are a fact, not western propaganda, but virtually universal knowledge among the community of nations
that is same as the "international community" which joined the "international committee" which "investigated" the cheonan ship sinking issue... all in that committee were already lined up against north korea... all were allies of usa... sweden, britain, japan etc
that is same as the "international community" which built up and invaded iraq in 2003, contributed to murders of two million iraqis... and hanged saddam hussain, the president of a sovereign nation.
that is same as "friends of libya" and "friends of syria" who actually were nato leaders and their ikhwaan and al-qaeda, who had invaded libya and syria.
but below are two western young chaps who admire or are not hateful of north korea...
1. ( stimmekoreas - YouTube )... nice vids, and he had plans of visiting.
2. ( Nile Bowie: Understanding North Korea )... he visited.
As much as I may find people constantly texting to be annoying, come on! How does that compare to totalitarian torture, massive famine, slave labour?
what does "totalitarian" mean anyway?? and massive famine?? did you personally go there?? or do you just listen to bbc?? what do you say about the 69 deaths ( public number ) of workers in the tea plantation in darjeeling ( eastern india ) who died because of hunger because of job-loss because their plantation company closed down??
and your point about the "famous" photo of north korea from space... your compatriot on this forum, @oldman, had said the same as you, and i had replied like this... there are photos of nighttime india taken from space... very brightly lit... does that mean india is now more developed and happier place than north korea?? you know, in the last few days, india has been declared "suicide capital of the world" by uno/who... and can the unlighted north korea not be deliberate, for security, against mass waves of bombers or rocket attacks, especially when nato satellites have been destroyed??
When did I oppose this bit "slaves of unjust traditions and war-mongering governments to continue for another 500 years??" all I said is it is far from reality...
Easier said than done....
Another dream another title
akheilos, why are you being defeatist and hostile?? you too want the society that i am talking of... which is why the op, @giger, started this thread...
you make it work by joining socialist groups... why should you sit on the fence when you know of the true system for human-kind?? why should you criticize an idea that calls for justice, freedoms and progress??
and what can't work?? christianity has existed for 2000+ years, islam for 1400+ years, soviet union existed for 80+ years, libyan jamahiriya for 40 years, bolivarian venezuela has existed for 14+ years, socialist afghanistan for 10+ years, north korea for 68 years... just random samples...
and in year 2017, just three years from now, will be the 100th anniversary of the russian bolshevik revolution...
so, what can't work??
and if the "occupy wall street" had been so defeatist... "oh, protests won't work because capitalism is big and has existed for thousands of years... oh, the occupy protests is such a bad idea."... if the "occupy wall street" people had thought like you in 2011, their protests would never have started in the first place... besides, if you are muslim then you should not be saying "it won't work"... you can call yourself muslim in 2014 because the sahaba didn't say "oh, it won't work"... instead they joined the idea of islam and initiated the spread of it all over the world... and you are pakistani... from a nation built by the strong will of one man, and his supporters... and speaking of pakistan... the national poet of pakistan is iqbal, one of the early socialists in south asia.
what you call as "dreams", were achieved, yes??
Too much of everything turns into evil....even free will...
agreed... which is why the freedoms will be brought by socialism which will take care of removing evils initially, and punishing those who do evil later... which is why every socialist society, presently and in history, has a big security system... they not only must act against internal evil but also must continuously guard against external conspiracies.
