Nightmare on Ceeb Street

The Ceeb posts the ideas of a "deep-thinker"/zany leftoid who thinks the following is an appealing scenario:
A vision for 2030
Imagine waking up one day in February 2030 in Toronto or Timbuktu. Your phone beeps and a text message reminds you that it is global election day.

How could you forget? For months the media has spoken of nothing else.

Like everyone else on the planet, you know the candidates' politics, values and beliefs. You are familiar with their rhetoric.

You've heard the slogans: global equity, poverty eradication, responsible planetary management.

What marks this day as historic is that it is the first global election. On this day, all eight billion people will vote for a leader for the planet.

Polling booths open first in Tonga, Fiji, and New Zealand. Voting spreads around the world, finally stopping, at the end of a long day in Hawaii.
What Utopian drivel--and what a truly terrifying prospect! The only future that's even more chilling than the one outlined above is one in which only a single party--the Allahu Akbar Party--is in the running come "global voting" time.
