Like Nazi Germany grew stronger and stronger and grew to be the leader of Europe (+)?
((+) until it was vanquished of course by democratic countries -- but where do you find democratic countries, when you need one?)
- sremani 9y agoEvery strongman is not a hitler, mao or stalin. Especially, when they come through with largely "free" elections. Abuse of power as President is different from putting 6 million people in gas chambers and marching around and being responsible for deaths to 10s of millions of people. Lets have some perspective here, Please!
- PythonicAlpha 9y agoHitler came out of largely "free" elections. I don't think, that every despot is similar to Hitler, but still it is a despot. BTW: How do you recognize a despot: He behaves like one. Just open your eyes!
- nickpeterson 9y agoTo be fair, the issue here is that he seemed to be an undesirable despot. A good despot is actually better than a democracy, but they are just terribly risky every regime change. And a bad despot is.. well, terrible.
