The Best Defence [for A Democracy, For The Public Good] Is Aggressiveness, The Aggressiveness Of The Involved Citizen. We Need To Reassert That Slow, Time-consuming, Inefficient, Boring Process That Requires Our Involvement; It Is Called 'being A Citizen.' The Public Good Is Not Something That You Can See. It Is Not Static. It Is A Process. It Is The Process By Which Democratic Civilizations Build Themselves.
