Answer:

Democratic participation creates a number of obvious benefits for the rulers of a country. It bolsters their ability to impose totalitarian policies upon its citizenry with little or no resistance to repressive and violent tactics. It provides a preemptive form of mass consent, which lends credibility to the leaders chosen as proxy for the elites, while shielding the actual rulers from public scrutiny. It insures that an angry citizenry will turn its anger to fellow citizens instead of toward the ruling class. The obvious benefit to the rulers is an unbroken, unending grip on power.

Democratic participation fosters the preemptive acceptance of whatever policies are instituted by the elected, and creates mass tolerance for oppression. Wars of conquest, mass incarceration, and economic slavery all become facts of life for a citizenry content to vote every few years for big changes in how their leaders conduct their crony capitalism and rapacious military adventures. The benefit is unchecked to the handful of elites shielded by the democratic smoke and mirrors.

Because of democratic participation, rulers are able to ruin untold numbers of lives while neutralizing any tendency among the ruled to form an active resistance to tyranny. Rulers are free to criminalize any activity that threatens their grip on power, while democratic participation reinforces an impotent opposition to only minor details. It reduces civil disobedience to election time activism consisting of social media posts encouraging dissenters to proudly cast their vote in a few years instead of taking to the streets. It creates a convenient way for dissenters to channel their anger at fellow citizens instead of at power elites, freeing the elites to focus on economic supremacy and military conquest.

Explanation:

Participation is commonly defined as the act of taking part in some action. ... Participatory democracy is primarily concerned with ensuring that citizens are afforded an opportunity to participate or otherwise be involved in decision making on matters that affect their lives.

What will you eat on unknown Island​
gregori [183]
1. Kale

It’s got loads of fiber, iron and vitamins A, C, and K. It’s also got more calcium than milk. Just in case the deserted island is also somehow polluted, kale provides excellent cardiovascular support. It’s a natural anti-inflammatory and rich in antioxidants – handy since there probably won’t be any doctors.

Kale is easy to grow in your own backyard; you don’t have to be a green thumb. Plant a little, and it grows like a weed, replenishing itself naturally as you pull off the leaves. As a bonus, you can boil the stems for a simple vegetable broth.

2. Beans

Most deserted islands don’t have pharmacies that sell Metamucil. You’ll need to procure lots of fiber to keep those bowels moving, and beans are an excellent place to start (in addition to all the kale you’ll be eating, of course). Beans are great because they’re easy to grow and easy to store. They’re also rich in calcium, iron, and fiber.

If you’ve brought a companion to your deserted island, you’ll want to soak the beans before cooking. Soaking for eight to 10 hours releases enzymes in your beans, which means less tooting and easier digestion. Beans also decrease your risk of colorectal cancer, if eaten regularly.

3. Kiwis and Berries

Berries are amazing and often underestimated. They help us feel full, lose weight, and prevent disease. They’re also rich in antioxidants and contain high levels of phytochemicals, which protect us from cell damage so we can live long, happy, albeit lonely lives on the island. (Or buy yourself more time to wait for a rescue). Hopefully, you brought your handy book of poisonous berries. If in doubt, stick to kiwifruit – an easily recognizable berry.

4. Cantaloupe

This powerful melon is incredibly high in vitamin A, which has the bonus of being very good for the lungs. It’s also high in vitamin C and potassium, and chock full of beta-carotene. Plus, it’s clinically proven to grow on virtually every tropical island!

5. Quinoa

Some island dwellers like to bring barley, which not only lowers bad cholesterol and promotes good cholesterol but can also be used to brew your own beer and whiskey. The problem is, it’s not suitable for the gluten intolerant, which most of us are, at least a little. Quinoa is an excellent alternative since, as mentioned earlier, it contains nine essential amino acids, making it a complete protein. In case you don’t plan to fashion your own bow and arrow and take down some antelopes, quinoa is a great alternative.

6. Seaweed

It’s got more vitamins and minerals than you can name, plus it’s plentiful on the island and dried easily for storage. Crunched up it works great as a salt substitute.

Deserted islands really aren’t so bad. People pay good money for that kind of holiday, and they make sure all go smoothly, such as checking if the season is right, hotels booked have good ratings, and travel insurance is sufficient to cover all of the potential diseases they might encounter. Hopefully, vitamin and nutrition deficiency won’t be one of them!

In a group discussion, which of these is the best example of challenging the credibility of a source?
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

A. Given that the author reveres Valmiki as a prophet, I don't think we can count on his objectivity.

Note that reveres pretty much means "worship", and if the author reveres Valmiki, it means that the author's opinion is positive, and is not objective.

Objective means giving information without including one own's opinions or "feelings", and only giving the facts.
