I’m okay with democracy failing.

Yet you cheerlead for Wall Street authoritarianism. Unelected bankers will not govern the planet!

Heroin addiction is failing under the Taliban.

The majority of Americans and allies hate China and Russia because they are foolish enough to buy into the idea of ​​a world divided between “our values” and “autocracies.” with the arrogance of ignorance, they have no idea how to understand Eurasia.

It’s failing right before our eyes.

Socialism or barbarism. There is no third way.

Democracies tend to fall to authoritarians because mobs are stupid (regardless of any individual’s intelligence) & often cruel. America’s strength derives from decentralization, that it’s a republic with Liberty/power centered in individuals. That’s what hinders authoritarianism.
