No its not, gang rape is tyrannical, and power is held by the majority.

You are free to have your opinions. I respect that. But dont say you are for freedom, privacy, and decentralization, if you are pro dictatorship over democracy. A spade is a spade.

The worst and subdole thing about democracy is that the majority of people do not realize they are living under a tyrannical state. In some ways, having a benevolent dictatorship is better, because even NPCs would be more awake about their true condition.

Tyrannical? Lol. Tyranny means “a government in which absolute power is vested in a single ruler”. Im not trying to be an asshole here, but you aren’t making much sense either.

Democracy is an undercover tyranny: you have “freedom” only when you speak or act in not important contexts. Casually on the important matters (things that may affect the government in direct or indirect ways) people are forced or induced to embrace the government official narrative.

There is a balance involved to catering to the needs of everyone, a certain level of disappointment might be involved to structure social safety for all. As for negative effects by it, This seems more an issue of the democratic government getting to large, in my mind.

This is not about me defending benevolent dictators if they can be called that, it is simply about facts.

I remind you that democracy locked us in the house for months for a harmless virus, arrested us and fined us for it.

All government styles alike were doing covid measure lockdowns. Its not even comparable the level of atrocities that are done under a dictatorship compared to a democracy.

A benevolent dictator is better than a democracy and much cheaper, it is hard, people are not ready to understand this but it is so, there are many cases, such as Iraq, Libya, Arab Emirates or Spain in the Franco era.

50% taxes vs 10%, less laws and more Freedom and less state presence.

The current democracies are the worst dictatorships that exist.

His_Name_Was_Robert_Paulson 2y ago

I think much of are issues in a democracy can be mitigated from moving over from a fiat standard to a bitcoin standard. Going dictatorship seems a backwards move in my opinion

Haha, you are for freedom, privacy and bitcoin. But you think a benevolent dictatorship is better then a democratic process….this is a satirical post right? Of course a dictatorship is cheaper and more efficient in getting things done, because its complete centralized power structure. Bitcoin as a monetary network is the best because its censorship resistant and decentralized (nothing efficient about that). Why would you want anything less in a political system?

While it is true that RFK knows something more about health than these vegetarian pro-vaccine morons, let's not forget that he is a politician, his function if elected will be to defend the state and collect (steal) as many taxes as possible.

Don't be naive, Arnold had more muscles than RFK and he was a nefarious politician, and hypocrite, like all of them.

If now it turns out that muscles determine the quality of a candidate... There is no good politician, they are all thieves regardless of their muscle mass, my friend.
