Why Barbaric Stratocracy/Top-Down Dictatorship Does Not Work

I was talking to a friend, let's call him G. We've basically identified some stratocratic societies/countries. Countries like North Korea, Myanmar, Pakistan, Libya , Sudan, etc. Our opinion is that they are using their people as ransom to the international community for foreign aids and in turn use those money collected to enhance their arsenal of weapons and military might to further control the people. Now, we are praying that Thailand will not follow the slippery slope towards this type of rule.

However, after further discussion and wild brainstorming, is it possible that Darwinism is at work here? Ok, here's my theory. Darwinism is basically like the strongest survive right. I think, these countries, left to their own devices, will just die off anyway. Examples: they kill each other or when the shit hits the fan, AKA cyclone, aid workers actually have to bribe the policeman to give aid to the people. Such behaviour like refusing to help each other in times of need, just reeks of Darwinism don't you think?

True, there are other issues like "Power can corrupt", as stated by G. But I still think it's part of Darwinism, haha. Because, I think power can corrupt, if u allow it to. Actually, it's like anything in life and I will touch on it in another post - "Abuse or Use". Hell, even something simple like water, can abuse u if u drink too much!! It can even be used as a torture instrument as demonstrated in WWII, when the Japanese were in Singapore.

Anyway, digressed a little and back to Darwinism. So if I'm Burmese, what would I do? I would run for my life! I've met a friend, who is Chinese/Cambodian by descent and her parents escaped to France during the Pol Pot regime. She's born and bred in France so I consider her French. When her parents visited her in Singapore and she took them to the night safari, they were afraid of the leafy forest part because they still had memories of back then, of escaping. I look at her life today (good job, good life) and I think, something must be right about escaping!
So again, I see Darwinism. People just run away!

I'm sorry, but barbaric stratocracy/top-down dictatorship just does not work. I emphasize barbaric because in some very civilized societies, if it's not barbaric, stratocracy might still work with appeasement of the masses via camouflaged goodies.

All in all, I'm sorry but barbarism (if there's such a word) CANNOT communicate with evolved reasoning and communication (erm, diplomatic talks). It's like talking to caveman with good English or Chinese or whatever!?

I think, the people from these nations have tried. Aung San Suu Kyi from Myanmar - she was voted into power but who the hell cares? You hold a gun, you win!

So really, still think Darwinism at play....and worse still, if such a country is holding onto a leveraged product such as oil, you'll be invaded, on top of Darwinism at play!?

My heart goes out to the innocent people of these countries.
