You call it for what it is: an executive with authoritarian tendencies. Democracy is not an on/off light bulb, it's a material under constant stress that can bend a lot before breaking. But if you start calling it broken, while it's bending your thesis is easily refutable and you get called out for being a radical whatever. | ||

> You call it for what it is: an executive with authoritarian tendencies. Okay, but that's beating around the bush and a very milquetoast way to describe it. > easily refutable and you get called out for being a radical whatever. This is equivalent to being punched repeatedly by a bully and being scared that he'll cry "assault!" when you punch him back. At some point, you cease to exist if you don't act. | ||
