Politically you’re aligned with the fascist state. Do you stay and live there?

I'd like to say I don't think a dictatorship would be compatible with left-ish idealism, but I've seen plenty of those on the left that wish a president would just do the things they want with the stroke of a pen. However, pretty much 100% of those people were online so who knows if they are real or even right winger pretending to be of the left to normalize the attitudes of a dictatorship.
Honestly, I could write a whole thesis on the pros and cons of fascism, and I think it's important to be objective and honest about both, but ultimately I think the goals of liberalism are incompatible with the means of a dictatorship. What the left ultimately strives for is a post-scarcity world and fascism is means for conquering and seizing, not for production. If any dictatorship could create a sustainable abundance for all, who would have a problem with it? The fundamental problem people have with a dictatorship is that it has to take from outsiders and even its own people to sustain itself. That's the opposite of a sustainable abundance for all.
No, of course not and anyone who votes "Yes" is an idiot and likely immature.
Here's an example why:
Suppose you have a job and you hate your boss. You quit, right?, because you CAN quit. Now, if you love your boss, OK, that's great, but it's just a matter of time before you disagree with him or her and, if things get bad, you leave that job... because you CAN leave that job.
In a dictatorship, you CAN'T leave... and, sooner or later, you're going to disagree with the dictator because, in the 2+ million year, 100 billion person history of humans, there have never been 2 people who completely agreed 100% on everything 100% of the time.
Maybe the rules set well with you initially. But since it IS a dictatorship and dictators don't care about the people under them, but only about their rule of law, those rules will change capriciously.
"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

At the time of me posting this answer only two women have actually answered the poll. But if it is true it just goes to how women seem incapable of being hypocritical on anything. They are the ones leading the woke dictatorship by stealth by banning this based upon racism, sexism, homophobia, animal welfare (obviously they are ignoring disability because that is the ism they are most guilty of).
But another thing what a woman says and actually does it is an entirely different thing altogether. If the USA they if there was a dictatorship they could easily afford to fight a dictatorship or move away, but here in the UK they could not. Most would just tolerate it especially if they have kids, what are they gonna do kill themselves? No. They would put up with it.
Then again a dictatorship in the UK is remote because of the monarchy which the young mostly women are against and wnat to get rid of.. The reaping what you sow thing is great
Yup. But they tend to destabilize with successors. Progress slows way down under a single ruler because one person can only do so much. The odds of a dictator aligning with every aspect of your life are pretty low.
We get it, you don’t like Trump. But he was elected and must report to the people under term limits or face impeachment. Biden continues to weaken the country on the whole to the benefit of a few, you could say the same thing about Trump. Really, the legislative branch and locally elected officials are where the real power resides. There are too many other external threats that are infiltrating into internal ones that need to be dealt with.
No. They are basically toddlers trying to put the square shape in the circle hole. To the extent of looking for the holy grail and the ark of the covenant to help them redefine the experience of the universe that the square shape can by being extremely awesome go into a circle hole.
Hell no, and you'd be an imbecile to say yes because dictators can, will and always DO turn on a whim without notice, and what if you're totally against the new direction? That whim could be anything, including eliminating all those who no longer agree with his latest impositions - like you.
you mean like under a leader who lies with impugity, uses the “law” to attack his political opponents and uses the government to control media and whose public spokesperson spouts nothing but propaganda?
you spelled “biden” wrong. But intelligence isn’t your strong point. Being a shill is.
@Juxtapose you think Biden is prosecuting Trump? That it’s not prosecutors in Georgia and NY?
Yeah just a wild coincidence that all dropped this year and were correlated with the timing of yet another Biden scandal
@Juxtapose @gorydetails
One iota of evidence for that…please?
Did the “indictments” hit three years after he left office or not?
and all these charges took exactly 3 years to investigate? Man I know you're a stupid clown, but this is bad even for you.
Yeah, you're that stupid.
riiiiiight... you're as stupid as your boyfriend. He couldn't figure out how to answer this, but maybe you can... do banks just give you loans based on "trust me, bro"?
Yeah, there's a lot to answer. Do banks just take your word for it if you said your house was worth $100k more?
Actually it would be an appraiser, einstein. So there's no way to "defraud" a bank by telling them your house is worth 100k more. Got it.
but you just said the bank wouldn't just take your word for it?
So we have established that banks don’t give out loans in your word, taxes aren’t set on your word. Just so we are both clear
Did the bank get their loan back with interest payments? DO you argue with the property tax assessor that your property is worth $200 more than the price they think it is? No you don't. So shut the fuck up with your fake outrage.
The point is Biden is everything you accuse Trump of being. Always has been the point.
@Juxtapose what evidence did she destroy? Seriously don’t remember that happening.
Hey if all these republicans or trumpers think we are in a fascist dictatorship now under biden you’re free to leave. No one’s stopping y’all
A dictatorship specifically a king in authority is what I prefer to live under but that can go seriously right or seriously wrong.
Assuming all his policies were good and fair then yes I will live there.
Most GaG members on here support Trump. His project 2025 will give him absolute power over the USA. So I think most GaG members don't mind a dictator.
Hell no, screw dictatorships, everyone has the the right to freedom even if I don't agree with them politically.
No, but I’m afraid a lot wouldn’t know it’s a dictatorship…
Most humans value safety and security over freedoms. That's why the dictatorships work. There is a line I wouldn't cross, but if it is the Roman Republic then I'll do it.
If it is a dictatorship then by its very definition I wouldn't agree.
What's to stop the dictator from changing the policies?
Oh hell no. I don't like being told what to think and do.
Not in a million years would I live under a Dictator.
I'd be smart enough to understand that I'm expendable.
No, live free or die.
What’s changed? Seriously. Even under trump nothing changed for me, except facepalming everytime he made a fool of himself.

You feel that way but are they? The government has to pass a law and states have to enforce it. Until that you aren’t forced to do nuthin. Sounds like “feel facts” to me.
Seriously, liberals felt the same way under Trump. And I said the same thing. If anything he neglected government. Not start a dictatorship. Even if he wanted to.
Republicucks sure seem to want to
Anyone that said yes is a moron.
look at all those females voting no what a joke
Can I be the dictator?
