Greetings Dear Readers;

.
Hope you are well.

This is a Principle that has certainly demonstrated it's veracity through the ages.

Even Aesops Fables sheds some light on this one...'A tyrant needs no excuse'...In a story about a wolf and a lamb. If you are not familiar with Aesop's Fables...below is a link of introduction to these writings.

The Principle... 'A system of tyranny breeds tyrants.' informs us that tyrants can be found and actually multiply in practically any organisation or governance system where tyranny rather than that of freedom is the standard.

Let's give it a think.

Thank you for visiting 'Principle of the Day'. ^__^

Your choices of utensils is great, I'm talking about the tray that contains, the lemon, the banana and figs

Greetings @josediccus ,

Thank you for your kind reply.

The tray is Silver plate, it's design has a name which unfortunately I have forgotten. You will see it from time to time in Bleujay's posts...as it is another one of those photogenic pieces.

Thank you for dropping by. ^__^

Kind Regards, Bleujay

Yeah, I see the tray from time to time, it's why I was actually inquisitive..

It's true....it is a frequent prop already. ^__^

The design may be called 'Egg and Cup'.

Thank you @josediccus .

Cheers, Bleujay

Absolutely true! I love this 'Principle of the Day'

This principle plays out in too many organizations including the one I have my day job with. The one who has to authorize the requests of others has power over them. Sadly this power turns to tyranny in some individuals.

I notice you have a few spare witness votes, I appreciate it if you could send me one.

Greetings @ctrpch ,

Thank you for your kind reply. Indeed it happens all too often, as it is a natural inclination in some. Sorry to hear it is happening where you are.

Bleujay does have a few spare votes...I am really interested in what a witness's policy is toward some of Hive's controversial issues. Do you have links to any posts that address downvoting, for instance? Cure Angel no longer downvotes and posted about their decision a couple of months ago...Bleujay thought others would follow suit ...and that there would be more dialogue about it...Not that I have seen. Witnesses are quite mum about these things, understandably so.

I have read a couple of your posts...very much appreciate what you do for Hive.

Kind Regards,

Bleujay

It's always great to read your posts, looking forward to reading more.

Greetings @profwhitetower ,

Thank you for dropping by.

Appreciate knowing you enjoy the principles, great men of the past have lived by them and so can we.

Kind Regards, Bleujay

Tyrants should NOT exist, what happens is that subjects surrender to them, resistance must be generated, look for example at VENEZUELA, this man cannot be overthrown from there, a firm hand is required.

Greetings @lupega ,

The key word here is 'should' not exist.

Yes..subjects have surrendered their freedoms...it happens little by little without people realising their freedoms are dissappearing ....and as long as they appreciate handouts from the government...they will have tyrants in governance.

A couple of Principles come to mind. 'What the government can give you, they can also take away.' and 'A people get the government they deserve.' Not a popular Principle to be sure...but freedoms must be guarded by the people.

Thank you for opportunity to discuss the Principle. ^__^

Kind Regards, Bleujay
