The Democratic Machine

By 'Timi Onayemi

The human version of democracy has disappointed us

We plan to make A Democratic Machine.

A democracy and rights dispending machine.

When we have the next general elections there must be a free-for-all system that will eliminate the supernatural powers of rigging and forgery.

The Scientists

We the scientists of the world have decided to work together with me to create The Democratc Machine for the purposes of dispensing democracy everywhere on Planet Earth, and wherever its occupants have connections.

For the benefit of doubt, I have removed statutes, orders and beliefs in religion, astrology, metaphysics, ancestors in an ancestors' world controlling the affairs of the men they left behind; beliefs and faith in life after death.

Like three of it's most interesting predecessors- the Robot, Babelfish and the Space Station, it is normal for detractors and ignoramuses who have come of age in anti-human beliefs to roll out into the streets and criticize The Democratic Machine

 

 

We can take things from the past

To make The Democratic Machine.

The Floatation and Rotation Princples,

Or whatever.

And we shall need realistic futuristic principles,

Like the belief in and practice of equality among peoples.

Guiding the existence

Or whatever

Of the Planets, Moon, the stars and the influence

Of the Space Station -

The first freeflowing Man-made universe

And the satellite-

Our own Moon.

We control it

Unlike how the Old Moon

Control the affairs of Old Men

Who have even invented a Science

For their art of Nonsense.

They call it astrology and religion

But their mimistries and ministries are legion and legendary.

They have destroyed the world.

Men and Women, children or adults are Forces to be reckoned.

Birds are a Force to be reckoned with too

In the design of a plane.

If you do not know how the eagle does it, the albatross, the cheetah

Why do you want to design a plane.

We have seen democracy in action, writers, philosophers, artists and scentists.

Do not forget the historians, and our engineers, our carpenters- wheel makers.

In the history of the primitive religions and dogmatisms of the world

A carpenter reinvented the wheel of brain-work, human comprehension and ignorance.

By a hopeless decision by one monarch in Constatinople-Istanbul

To choose the religious wheel and similar decisions in Saudi Arabia

Coupled and uncoupled with similar decisions all over Africa,

And call the name of the place and there is religion there,

Maybe that is why people think that God is everywhere.

If you say there is something here and it's not here we have the right

To call you a schizophrenic. Simple and short and sharp and sound!!!

I want to stop all arguments about all aspects of human life,

That is why I invented A Democratic Machine to do the job.

Many people in the world like to conspire to commit a crime

If there is a Nigerian in the group, especially if he has no democratic traits.

If a Nigerian is democratic the people do not like them so much,

Such Nigerians become Fela, Ken Saro-Wiwa, Isaac Boro, Wole Soyinka,

Gani Fawehinmi, Beko Ransome-Kuti, Balarabe Musa and Femi Falana.

They become members of the Nigerian Resistance and Nigerian Anarchists.

Sometimes, something happen very often in Nigeria- tribalism and pure mess.

They are connected in series and parallel and tri-angles based on the fiction

That Nigeria is made up of three major tri-base tribes- Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba.

It all started, this tri-oglioic troblem, when three guys from these three groups

Waged a war for windepedence against the Brits and won outside but not inside.

If outside is X. Ex-. On the surface. And inside is Y. Why?-. In the problem

Of Development of human, animal, natural and futuristic resources.

The people involved in the survival of this dirty tribalstic culture are a majority.

And I will not be surprised if they say that there is no Igbo man in the list.

Well we shall add his name if we know it- Nnamdi Azikwe and Emeka Ojukwu.

Apart from the up being real and the down been no real place and people.

The old generation are still here in new robes but we have a philosophy

We want the people to give us a new reason for the past, today and the future.

Can you find a reason for yourself I, we and they do not give you a good reason?

Why we must construct a democracy dispensive machine now.

In that case, a situation where we have a credit-card machine-like robot

Doing the aristocratic, peoples', workers and bureaucratic, and public works.

Our Democratic Machine is of the highest timbre and calibre, iron and steel,

Computer programmes, revolutionary downloadables from the Internet, Cameras,

Mobile phones, Satellite phones, e-mail, a websites, a printer and artificial intellgence.

I propose that The Democratic Machine must not be bigger than a lap-top computer.

It must be hanged out at a height that gives access to kids, adults and senior citizens.

If it soever happens that the animals, like monkeys, donkeys and latchkey dogs

Become like the inevitable mankind, in future, as a result of evolution or creation,

Then a review of the camera on The Democratic Machine must be made so that

When The Democratic Machines sees a head with ears as large as the elephants'

It will continue to work as if it has seen the glory of man and woman on Earth.

If our glory is out here we do not need A Democratic Machine.

The Democratic Machine could come from the east, west, nortn or south. It is coming, wait for it. Most probable, from Taiwan. We do not rule out the fact that it may be a product of China, Koreas, Lagos, Nigeria, Hong Kong in China, Little Tokyo, Tokyo, Big Rwanda, Rwanda, The Phillipines, Palas Athena, Athens, Kosovo, South Carolina, The United States of America, Istanbul, Geneva, Sofia, from Sophists, Paris, Stuttgart, Mannheim, Gothenburg in Sweden, may be from Stockholm, Lima, Santiago de Chile, Rio de Janeiro, Sextons, the Vatican, Madrid, Rabat or Tripoli, and so on and so forth.

There are many reasons why The Democratic Machine cannot come from all of theses places. There are no special reasons why a Nigerian is designing it. It is all because, one time or the other, in this age or ages gone by, many people have come to the point of designing democratic dogmas and dingos based on a more long-term explanation of how the process will work when men and women are at the desks and counters and are cashiers or counters of the electorates votes and referendi.

In fact, contrary to past beliefs and in line with current real practices in the name of democracy, there is no democratic country in the world.

 

 

Democracy covered herself and her husband, and her lovers

With a veil and told every citizen of every country in the world to go out.

Democracy is at home.

You from the outside, can you entice her?

If Democracy is a woman

If Democracy is a man...

I have the belief that we have seen more than

Its worst failures, successes and excesses.

More men have done it and it never matters

Because women have been or top or under Democracy.

Can animals vote?

C an animal vote.

In the 'Animal Farm'. George Orwell.

'I Robot'. Isaac Asimov.

'The Modern Temper'. Joseph Wood Krutch.

'The Measure of Man'. Joseph Wood Krutch.

Boolean Algebra. 'An Investigation into the Laws of Thought'. George Boole.

Kurt Vonnegut Thought.

R. U. R. Karel Capek, Czech playwright explored 'the mass production of automata' in R. U. R. , published in 1920. Before the first set of modern computers were built.

In the same year,

I have the impression that The Democratic Machine cannot come the United States of America, where Democracy has been raped like a young girl, eaten-up like a young African boy going home to meet the whole family, in New York. Where the statistics of random sampling is considered performable on the votes of minorities or immigrants. Now a citizen's vote is not the same as a naturalized citizen's vote.

Take notes when you vote in America.

Make a photocopy of your vote.

Look for it. At the other end.

Ask the Counters for your Vote.

Get your answer before you leave.

The Counters say that you voted in Florida,

That you cannot see your vote anymore,

That you should stop asking for it,

That the Supreme Court of The Land said so.

And so? What happened to The International Court of Justice?

It is because Al Gore believes in God. Gaddem.

Does not know or has no beliefs in ICJ at The Hague.

Now, the belief of old and new Yugoslavians in The Hague

Is marvellous indeed.

And it is Absolut. Drink it.

And it is absolutely impossible for Democracy

To come from London-

There is a Palace and a Monarchy

In the middle of that city.

In British Democracy

If you don't win in England

You cannot become the Prime Minister

Of The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Now, there is no doubt in my mind that$

This is an Englishman's idea.

Or the EU. Hee Yuu.

Chin-chin.

Do you vote in China?

A joker!

Shinkinrinkin and Gbagadagbagada

Cannot produce The Democratic Machine.

If you say that The Democratic Machine

Will come from Africa no one living or dead will believe you.

And indeed in all truth from the original to lost truths

Like the origin of man and animal and the world and the universe

I do not believe you.

Do you come from this world and still mainatain a position like that.

I have no choice but to believe you sensible man

That The Democratic Machine

Came from Africa

It is here.

Touch it.

I have invented The Democratic Machine in order to acquaint you with a new world. To show you that it is possible, all the humanist's hopes and aspirations.

I have invented A Democratic Machine.

It takes the history of the world

And Time

Into consideration.

It is going to trace the origin of man

With Artificial Intelligence.

We are at the us stop, they rail...

Why do you use Artificial Intelligence

Where is your Common Sense.

Now, common sense is very cheap. Sometimes, you need to e orn in a good and ad home, something like in a normal human family with their infightings, social and economic prolems like any other, and have people around you struggling to make it y all means necessary through all kinds of lies for the tax office and the correct amount that should e in their bank accounts do actually coincide with the amount of money that they have in their mind. The Democratic Machine will have to empower and disempower families according to the dictations of human intelligence in form of a machine and with a chip containing the latest developments in artificial intelligence.

We had no choice, we had to do it like this. Change the world, and make sure that democracy works for the people, dead rains, travellers, home dudes, old women, sexually harrassed men and women, students, examinations, refugee applications, nuzclear tests, education, the correct history of the world, and the future looks bleak...

The future has never been brighter, can't you see?

Now, we have A Democratic Machine, we can get rid of the president, prime minister and parliamentarians.

The broke all the chairs and stained-glass windows in our People Parliament.

We are happy, the government is no longer in the country.

The Democratic Machine can do it all.

It is our all in all in all and sundry issues and causes.

How will The Democratic Machine work?

Very Eazy.

We all have a card with a micro chip.

On this card we stand!

All the information about our existence on Earth

Will be in the chip in the card.

It will get smaller or bigger

As human progress or doom

Will provide it with the atmosphere and society

That The Democratic Machine will be in

After I am gone and no more.

When my time is over

And, remember, I have no eternity

I am a man.

When I die it means that is the end.

But I leave you with the body

Of The Democratic Machine.

The Democratic Machine has no soul. It is a machine.

Man has no soul,

Not at least, as there is nothing out there.

There is no planet or star out there where our live,

As much as I know.

The Democratic Machine will re-arrange the affairs of men

With a greater accuracy than the best of men.

Men at Work.

Indoor, Outdoor

Will e paid y The Democratic Machine

When there pay is due.

Money or the death.

Or petty fines and fees.

When your card goes into

The Democratic Machine

All your rights and wrongs

Will show.

There are Satellites covering every grain of the Earth,

More are focused on men because they are dubious.

Well, do you know the plans of The Eagles.

By the laws of chance

Anything can happens.

There are no miracles.

It is impossible in the Milky Way Galaxy

Or in this Universe and other Universes.

We must respect the laws of natural sequence.

Something unatural

Like Unseeable and Omnipotent

Has no place

In The Democratic Machine.

Artificial rubber and steel

Can be used to put things in place

In The Democratic Machine.

A Democratic Woman

Considering the possibility

That Democracy may be a woman,

Would have been considered to e of a superior reed of humanity

Before we found out that smoking

May be the reason why men die early

Seven years efore women die.

Now, that is from the old books as I told you.

In the new books

More women are dying.

Because women smoke like men do.

I told the scientists that poverty is a greater cause of death

That capitalism loves to have poor people without much possibilities

Than Anarchism.

So the soul of The Democratic Machine

May be compared to that of A True Anarchist,

If men and machine could have souls.

Returning souls!

Anarchists.

Why did you come back?

To straighten things up.

What gives you the impression that you are not gonna mess it up?

Well...

I have a crazy belief in the recurrence of the same through a chain of idea like passing genes of voice and do from mother to son. This is a good boy. In the families in the world we have seen Anarchists surviving their Anarchist Fathers, and we have seen children like Bush surviving their Capitalist Fathers.

There has been instances of the transfer of genes of yes and no and cloudy judgements from father to sons and daughters and from mothers to sons and daughters, which does not respect the natural

Democratic Machinic Laws based on the fact that genes can only be transfered if the prospective father and mother make love or have sexual intercourse by common consent or force. Parents tzalk to their children and may tell them that what is yes is no and vice-versa.

There has been instances of different results from father and son and mother and daughter and all the rest of the proailities of the results possile from the mating sprees and tzalks and speeches: Some children do not ehave like their parents, they change their ways and their speed. Out of line with Anarchism or Capitalism, and in line with the a different way of thought than it has ever een possile in their family, they excel, they ecome ffree, they follow the truth.

The Truth?

Yes!

What happened to Lies?

Why do you want to tell me a lie?

Tell me the truth and leave me with it.

Propagandist.

Hatre lack and Love Pink.

All The Democratic Machines in the world

Will e connected without wires.

These satellites are out of reach

Of man-made disasters like terrorism

Or 'Revenge for A Rape'.

Or unatural disasters

Like some kinds of lack 'Hurricane's

And Volcanoes.

Do you remember or did you forget?

There is fire in the center of it all.

Did you forget that there if fire in the centre of the world?

Now, this is bullshit

There has been instances of cross-breeding along colourlines in the world. What is the product? Mullato.

A Democratic without a definite colour?

No, the colour is the colour.

Do you understand?

There has been instances of

The Democratic Machine will deal will rapists etter than courts do.

Equally.

To the gaols! Oh! Ye Rapists.

We prefer Sophists.

A new breed of Socrates?

There may e instances of people who know how to argue. People argue, my rother! They may say that they have lŽost their ID Card. The international identity card for all the people living in a Democratic World. In that case, we do not need police reports. Stinking shit. We ring the concerned citizen to The Democratic Machine Place. We put him in front of The Democratic Machine. Another International Democratic ID Card will come out. And all his informations about him, which are supposed to appear will come out on The Democratic Machine Screen.

You will come out on The Democratic Machine.

One day go e one day.

Monkey go go market

He no go return.

Bloody Thieves!

Shout!

Ole!

Olojukokoro!

Jibiti Man.

One Democratic Machine

In every street.

Every street of the world.

And there is no way to protect

The Democratic Machine

From Street Balls.

If you hold a Cocktail Ball

In the street

The Democratic Machine

May Cry Foul.

It chills out too

And does not have to be out there

In the cold

Without wine water or beer

To show it

That the festival is here tonite.

Closed Balls can have a field day.

It can count points and goals.

What is your goal?

?Democratic Machine.

The Democratic Machine

Is interested in Sports.

FIFA and the International Olympic Committee.

The years of Samaranch at IOC

Must be poked and probed

For unjust use of business, quota systems

And sports.

It is not a surprise to mere men

But it will be an embarassment

To The Democratic Machine

That Human Rights considerations,

Which may, preferably, be called

The provision of the basic necessities of life

For peoples

Is different from sporty considerations.

The tenets of sports.

And collection.

Nonesense.

The Democratic Machine

Is a predecessor of

The Revolutionary Machine

And it is its forerunner too.

Imagination by George Santayana.

We can imagine the unimaginable and when our imaginary dreams come true, we are geared up for more exercises. These exercises take place in the brain of all living beings. The virus foollowing the cell it will attack. Now. And more, there are thoughts which are ot very healthy for the human race and the Earth race too.

The Democratic Machine

Is under design and construction,

But The Revolutionary Machine

Is gathering speed on paper

And through Public expressions

Of doubts in Public affairs

That will have seen in Human Revolutions,

And since The Democratic Machine

Is not the last of the Technologic Titans

Designed and Produced to eaze the pain of peoples

Discriminated against and oppressed into jails.

Let them out!

Let them in here!

Let them out now!

From Mumia to Peltier,

Political prisoners and Prisoners of Conscience

From country to country.

All of you countries,

Let them out now!

All the Political Prisoners in the world

Have been released by The Democratic Machine,

And The Revolutionary Machine

Is here to guard against any re-occurence

Of the primitive partisan pawns,

The re

In The Democratic-like Games

Played by conspiracy and raw cash power

To a strange and dirty kind of consensus

Along and across the party idea and country ways

Into regional melodramas and international warfares.

It all starts with a small crisis-

Discontent of the people

With The United Nations

And all local and supposedly democratic organizations-

Business firms and farms and The Economic Bank,

The World Bank and the Security Council of the UN.

It has all been identified as the historic plan

To keep the poor poorer so that the rich can have more.

The Democratic Machine is here to

Kick Them Out!

Kick Them Out!!

Kick Them Out!!!

The Democratic Machine

Can do all the works of

The United Nations,

Now, there is no Umited Nations in The World.

Are you looking for trouble?

Without The United Nations in the world

What will happen to Women, Children, Refugees

And Political Prisoner. The Indigenous Peoples,

Victims of economic and natural disasters like war-

It's natural because it always come back.

War every morning.

Have you been to the war-front today-

The Bus-Stop and your Desk-Top

If you are lucky to be there fighting it out

Or in our factories and Sweat-Shops.

Fake refugees

Will be turned back

By The Democratic Machine.

In fact, there may e no reason for refugees to move around the world in search of protection, work and justice. Something, makes me feel that the refugees want too much. There is not enough protection, work and justice in the world. What did you say you want?

The Democratic machine will give it to you.

Here, take your justice and go home.

A justice that can see the criminal and the accused-

Human Democracy.

Yes, bind him up in police fashion,

Read it his rights and give him a public lawyer.

To the re-constituted International Court of Justice.

Tell them more,

Democratic Machine.

Hey, you got it. I'm just doing my job

No Bribery. No Corruption.

The Democratic Machine

Will not need the services

Of Big business.

No!

What will happen to people who do not want The Democratic Machine?

Ha! The Impossible.

You can't do without it.

Why do you design A Democratic Machine?

There is no democracy around

And The Systems paraded by people

As Democracy As Government Of The People

By The People And For The People

Is now a Democracy As People of The Government

By The Government And For The Government.

It is not surprising.

We have reduced the pain of long-distance travel

In the air, on land and water. and

Until we can remove the burning quality in fire

The Democratic Machine

Must guard and guide us.

The Democratic Machine

Cannot spoil, only fools are bastards.

The Sons of Men,

In fact, they are the only ones we know.

And their destructive ideas.

Motor boards and Ski Stations.

The best of the worst is the Space Station

Though we cannot underestimate the power

Of conspiracy to colonize the moon and space.

That the people who can see it and fund the research

And control the economic systems of the world

And prevent research into the Slave Stations around the world

In the past and the present.

Into the reasons why planets and stars close to the center

Of the Milky Way galaxy move faster than the ones outside

Like us.

We control everything in this universe

And we have to scrap Slave Stations now.

Scrap Slave Stations!

Scrap Slave Stations!!

Scrap Slave Stations!!!

Scrap Slave Stations now!!!!

The Democratic Machine

Will Scrap Slave Stations .

The Democratic Machine

Will not have the power and will not need

A Prediction of The Future.

The Democratic Machine

Will remove all ad things and ideas

To give us a clean and environmentally-friendly future.

Can you come her like lightning

Can you get her before the thunder.

The Democratic Machine

Will e here efore the people know it.

Welcome Ho!

Welcome Ho!

Welcome The Democratic Machine Ho!

There is no mankind without danger

And a dangerous future

Remember and do not forget again

That there is fire at the centre of the World.

And life without danger will be boring.

It shall never e a case of everyone in the World

And the expectable aliens falling in love

With The Democratic Machine.

Our will is very different, so is our wish

Our wills and wishes must become the same.

For The Masses

The Democratic Machine

Will do everything.

Thre will be more than enough money

In The Pocket Of The Masses.

Take a look

Into The Pocket Of The Masses

There is nothing there

And you can't do something with nothing.

The Democratic Machine

Has Come to do everything.

A quality it is determined to follow is

Equality.

Now, all men and women in the world are equal.

This is paradise.

Ha! Ha!! We are in Paradise.

Pass the milk and honey to the left-hand side.

Do you drink water?

When do you have the time and the chance to drink water?

Pass the water to the right-hand side.

There is food up there and there is food down here.

All prisoners must have food, water, books and exercise times

In complete freedom.

Relative freedom is like downtown.

Watch!

They snatched her bag and passed it to the right-hand side.

The Democratic Machine

Will catch thieves

And pick-pockets.

In Madrid, have you encountered Pikpoketas.

There is no enough Pesetas

In the Basque Country.

The Democratic Machine

Will Pesetas

From Pikpoketas

And pass it to the left-hand side.

On November 17 and October 17

We shall remember all rememerables.

On July 4 and October 1

We shall remember all rememerables.

Mt. Etna eruptions.

The Massacre of 10 million Congolese People.

The Massacre of Palestinian y Jews is of great concern to elgium?

I don't think so.

The Massacre of Jews y Hitler's Germany.

The Democratic Machine has come to stop New Massacres

Of the Human Race

And also to set the records straight.

Hail! The Democratic Machine.

There will be ideas different from that of

The Democratic Machine

But men and woman and animals and viruses, etcetera.

Will have the ultimate respect for

The Democracy-Dispending Machine.

The Democratic Machine

Can identify The Origin of Species and Aliens.

All the problems of the people and the world, in the present and the future can be solved by The Democratic Machine.

Life in Space or in another Galaxy or another World is not beyond the reach and the intelligence of The Democratic Machine.

Life in the World has become unbearable. We have found a way to get out of this mess called world affairs and the death of the poor from less and lesser opportunities y the second and the more concrete social, political and economic problems. In whose hands does the solution to the problems of the World lie. Certainly, it is not in hands of any God or Goddess, if this is so, this God, Gods, Goddess or Goddesses, if it exists, would have revealed their identities and solving the problems, while refraining from being a mystery. Our problems are not a mystery. We can recount them: socio-politiko-ekonomik problems, even if we are drunk, just coming back from play or work, on holidays or have just being woken up from sleep in a state which bears a strict resemblance to the schizophrenic or psychotic condition. There is a coalition of the natural World with the supernatural world. All the Worlds are one and all the people and Gods, etc. if these exist in a state comprehendable by WE THE PEOPLES OF THE WORLD who have a stake in the World or Worlds would come to give account. We do not need to ask the so-called World leaders and the UN, EU, OAU, WTO, G8, Omega Plans for Africa and Alpha Plans for whoever, for a reconstruction of the private and public economies. If the problems of the World does not come from The World Bank and the IMF, then we need a soothsayer to tell us the origin of the present problems of war and mass exodus from every destroyed society to any society living on the lood of the destroyed ones.

TO BE CONTINUED in the spirit and the ghost of democracy...
