My understanding of the two words stand divided, are they really what they describe themselves as? I am not sure, how can you implement democracy without mass autocratic movement? I do not think it is possible. Take for instance in our very homes do we really practice democracy, well I doubt. Most often one person wears the pants and dictates terms and everyone agrees, I see and autocrat expecting a democratic approval from the rest. Our homes are the best place to see democracy trampled, well, difficult decisions are taken no matter the majority in the household disagree, now that is not the way democracy works; at least that is my understanding. Correct me if I am wrong in saying that we are living in a large democracy run by autocratic ideas. Our lives are governed by autocratic ideas of the society, we do not see democracy there. The so-called moral police try and implement the moral code and we don't have an answer to this kind of autocratic ideas in a democratic nation.
Is moral policing just another form of autocratic idea that is creeping into this country? I would say yes and I hope many share the same idea. We live under the scanner of the society that dictates the way of life. I am at loss of words, I have so much to say yet I am unable to put them into words. Maybe some other time!!
