Well, sure they like to claim that masses are stupid and need to be governed. Which is getting true nowadays. But it is not by nature but rather by the process of making everyone dumb through media propaganda, useless consumption, bad education etc.
No, I meant that differently. Just trying to get democracy reduced, to get the people supplied with a parliament and a state system that you know from previous centuries - and see if you get away with it. Just a try, maybe with the intention to do more if it doesn't interest anyone.
No. Silently trying to strip down ("zurückbauen" ist the German term I have in mind, but I have trouble finding a proper translation for it) the system that reigns people and see if they take even notice or not. If they don't, maybe try the next step of abandoning something within the system that gave them power before.
Like when the king tries to reestablish his power and get the plebs ousted again from part-taking in their governing.
