harboDaily comment to say fuck Russia
joshuaacaseyCorrection: Fuck Putin. Let’s not be Russophobic towards the good Russian people. After all, it’s not their fault they have a dictator in charge of their country.
It kinda is.
How do dictators come to power? Spoiler: it’s not by winning elections. (well okay that’s not entirely true since Trump won)
As you imply, it’s possible for someone to come into power by winning elections, and then become a dictator by breaking the democratic process, ending free & fair elections, criminalizing opposition parties, destroying independent judiciary so that dictatorial actions cannot be reviewed in court, etc.
There are plenty of examples of this in today’s international fascist movement.
