The NR is a neocon rag and Buckley was the original unprincipled cuckservative. Stop spamming him.

Tradition is a joke historians run on people with short term memories

Why? I'm not claiming that everything is perfect now but we've moved on from most of the shitiness in the past...

The Golden Age was first, a time that cherished
Of its own will, justice and right; no law,
No punishment, was called for; fearfulness
Was quite unknown, and the bronze tablets held
No legal threatening; no suppliant throng
Studied a judge’s face; there were no judges,
There did not need to be. Trees had not yet
Been cut and hollowed, to visit other shores.
Men were content at home, and had no towns
With moats and walls around them; and no trumpets
Blared out alarums; things like swords and helmets
Had not been heard of. No one needed soldiers.
People were unaggressive, and unanxious;
The years went by in peace. And Earth, untroubled,
Unharried by hoe or plowshare, brought forth all
That men had need for, and those men were happy
Gathering berries from the mountainsides,
Cherries, or blackcaps, and the edible acorns.
Spring was forever, with a west wind blowing
Softly across the flowers no man had planted,
And Earth, unplowed, brought forth rich grain; the field,
Unfallowed, whitened with wheat, and there were rivers
Of milk, and rivers of honey, and golden nectar
Dripped from the dark-green oak-trees.

I think democracy should go back to assigning offices by lot similar to how the Athenians did with the Kleroterion device. Is that traditional even though it goes against the oligarchic practices that we've had for the last 300 years or so in the west?

No we haven’t. It’s amplified by technology if anything.

It’s tradition of me to tell you all that I really really want to fuck Buckley.
