Green with stupidity

I’ve been following the Green party for a number of years in various countries. They are the reason why I believe that no single political party will do anything for us, as a country.
They've got connections for getting good photovoltaics, windmills, and granola, but that's it.

The party poop
The only thing I’ve come to see is that, once a party starts looking serious, it realises that about itself also, and begins to play the long waiting game. That means it starts to look at the levers of power and stops seeking consensus with its grass-roots.

The grassroots “don’t understand the workings of politics”

they’ll say to themselves.

They don’t dare say it anywhere else
because they’ll get turfed out on their keisters if they do.

That one idea goes against the very notion of creating a new party; it’s against the present order of things.
That happened to the Greens, most certainly, once in power. They saw it in their interest to support the bombing of Serbia when one of their founding tenets is ‘don’t kill anybody for any reason other than self-defence’, or something like that. As would naturally happen, the German Greens have ‘lost their way’. I could have told you that. The ‘grassroots’ left, never to be political again (or to join an extremist/nationalist party). The ones who stuck with the party should have been seeking the head of Josca Fischer, the Green minister who gave the ‘all clear’ to bomb, but in the end, the remaining members were compromised by their desire to see the party in power, even though it’s now a Green shell of itself.
Let’s not even talk about the fact that the other German parties set this trap for the Greens who fell right in, those political neophytes. They should have discussed the rights and wrongs (as a democratic movement- or party) of bombing and then decided not to do it. Instead, they played the game, and were beaten, literally. Didn’t they have a single Poli Sci or History grad amongst them?
So, now that Western economies are melting in front of our eyes, some ‘political’ opportunists, Socialists, Communists and anarchists (too disorganised and childish to deserve a capital ‘A’) are telling people to join them. In my opinion, that would be just the continuation of more politics.
Where we often thought in the good old days that the bureaucracy of our countries was against the people, now we realise that, in hard economic times, the government is most definitely also against the people. Any government structure, I think, goes against the nature of human beings. That doesn’t make me an anarchist, but we just have to realise that we’ve seen democracy fail to protect the many, and rally to support the rich and the criminals.

In 2010, damnit! Everywhere!
The reason for this also damns any party.
If you have a system that places all the importance
on a bunch of people with nice titles,
they'll abuse their position.
It's corruption or collusion.
take your pick.
