Making of a Dictatorship:
1.Dumb down people; spread lies, propaganda & conspiracy theories under guise of "truth". Stupid is easier to contol
2.Create chaos, distrust, hate, violence, gaslighting, & projection to confuse the people
3.Take rights away from everyone EXCEPT for those who PLAN to do the controlling [White Republican "Christian" men]
4.Limit teachers, ban books, deny history, & oppose science
5.Denigrate respected journalists & leaders
6.Imprison and/or kill off "perceived enemies"
@NYTupelo7 the playbook isn’t even that complicated, what is complicated is the reasons normies don’t see it happening in real-time

While viewing this, I get the sense that THIS is how Putin presented his workshop to his loyal MAGAs when they were "invited" to Russia that 4th of July weekend...to get them to understand just how to destroy Democracy & create a Dictatorship in America.
Putin knows these inept Republicans in Congress are too stupid to grasp anything more complex than a pictorial presentation.
@NYTupelo7
So very true. History books are filled with all this. #Dictatorship #GOP

There's a TV series about the playbook and it's unbelievable how it works out for dictators time and again

The Dictator's Playbook

Explore how dictators, from Mussolini to Saddam Hussein, seized, held and fell from power.

So true. On Twitter, I have a pinned tweet on Russia's "Active Measures". I will post it on my profile page. It is disturbing, crazy, manipulative, & psychological "warfare" to get the masses to "fall in line" under a Dictatorship which Putin uses all the time.

I just posted it...check it out.
