Progress - consisting of technological, economic and moral/social growth - is an illusion. Its priests fervently cling to the idea that material prosperity brings enjoyment and happiness, even though history has shown that only material want and a life of struggle lead to a meaningful existence. In other words, material prosperity doesn't bring about anything apart from misery.

Democracy empowers selfishness. Any political system based on desire is fundamentally flawed.
