Government: Too Big to Fix? | 5 Minute Videos

Pol Pot loved farmers and hated educated people "Poof" somewhere close to 2 million dead by the hands of his people. Stallin, Mao, and hundreds of other government Klingons were just people as they sent their citizens to be hung, burned, shot, or killed by a thousand cuts while the PEOPLE watched and laughed..We today have people rotting in jail (Jan.6th) and others broken because of the lawfare that the people of this government has brought down upon their heads.. Hey just people !

  I fear no god only people who claim they can talk to god and carry out his commandment as the witches are burned and non believers are stoned or important pieces of the bodies are removed. But hey just people, rejoice !! !

The actual problem is always "just people" - that's not meant to excuse them or diminish the wrongdoing.  It's not a moral statement... nor is it a judgment of any kind.

I'm just trying to point out that our government (like most governments) was never conceived or designed so as to be abused by a group of ideologues or mafiosi...

Those people who slew thousands are people - not to be confused with what beliefs or ideologies they pretend to serve... they could have, and probably would have, done those things regardless of what government was in place. 

A government isn't a "real' thing that can pick up a gun and kill people... it takes a person to do that, one who 'excuses' themselves as 'obeying orders' or 'being loyal' to [insert group name here.]

People aren't ever truly "governed" - they choose to be governed.  They choose not to resist or object. 

They "do" because a) everyone is doing it, b) they are obedient and subordinate to whatever, or c) they want to.

I don't want to 'rejoice' about that... it is sad.
