On Democratic Decision-making and My Journalism Dream



               As you may know, I am often criticised as a democracy opposer. By no definition I support aristocracy or authoritarianism. I seem like one because, in the short run, they’re the responsible decision-maker.
               I always believe, that like Fukuyama said, that Western democracy is the final form of human society. Because mankind can enjoy her utmost freedom under such a democratic state.
               Such democratic state should be a state with one-man-one-vote regime, the leader should be meritocratic, sound and transparent; It’s citizen should enjoy full freedom including criticise its leadership, but not simply mock as a emotional rant.  
               What I see as an effective democracy, is that everyone can have empathy upon another, have boarder understanding to entire society. With an informed and educated electorate, they might distinguish what is good for them and what is bad, especially during the long run. For what’s it worth, they should also criticise every decision constructively, and treasure sound decision with care and respect, for such an extraordinary regime is hard to maintain.
               She shall worship the rule of law, for every citizen under law should be hold equal; She shall worship the freedom of speech, for Jeremiah can born anywhere in the world; She shall worship the freedom of publish, for Murrow can impact a generation gone stray; She shall worship the freedom of the pursue of happiness, for mankind are born to govern the land.
               With an informed and educated electorate, I believe such a society can be descended upon us. That brings another topic of mine, my dream in journalism.

               What is journalism? Journalism in it’s nature should be endless pursue in story, without bias and shew, and to spread the news as soon and as wide as possible.
               Journalism shouldn’t be a mere satisfaction to the eager of it’s targets’ taste, but it should be held with social responsibility, with is deliver information with most importance in democratic decision-making progress, and to present best argument in best way possible.
               Journalism should be an industry of moral, it should be an industry of dedicated care to democracy itself. Journalism should be a sublime dedication, a vocation of life.
               Journalism is the cornerstone of democracy, and only that and honour that, our society can be truly democratic.
