We have a war dictator who was not elected, he snuck in. so he punishes people that threaten him in any way, or even say something he doesn't like. It has no resemblance to democracy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Nothing can be more abhorrent to democracy than to imprison a person or keep him in prison because he is unpopular. This is really the test of civilization.
Democracy consists of choosing your dictators, after they've told you what you think it is you want to hear.
The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don't have to waste your time voting.
Democracy don't rule the world, You'd better get that in your head; This world is ruled by violence, But I guess that's better left unsaid.
It is hard to look the other way when a dictator is being so cruel and violent with his own people.
The one indisputable reality of dictatorship is that dissent, insult, and malevolent language do not go unpunished if it is allowed at all.
We know that dictators are quick to choose aggression, while free nations strive to resolve differences in peace.
Democracy is an imperfect way of steering between the violence of anarchy and the violence of tyranny, with the least violence you can get away with.
Sometimes it's better to have a benign dictator than a dumb democracy, to be honest.
Most of wars or military coups or invasions are done in the name of democracy against democracy.
