Based on recent events reported from India, it seems it’s time to add India to the list. India (turning into Hindustan, like Pakistan) is becoming a fascist dictatorship in a disguise of a democracy. Human rights means nothing there and freedom an oblivion. If the ruling government wins again in the so claimed “unrigged” elections, coming in 2024, India will become the largest “democratic” dictatorship, with 1.4 billion people. That’s the irony no one understands. Fascists there are that good in deception. I encourage everyone to keep a close eye on India. It’s a good textbook on how the institutions that were placed to protect freedom led to the destruction of the same. It’s a good lesson on what to do and what not to do to keep a democracy alive. Most importantly, it tells a story of how silence of people lead to the death of a democracy.

So I'd like to actually see how you feel about this video now when you've seen how Democrats have thrown away their people's rights and states and really consolidated their power and started acting like the judicial branch and the executive branch

@@Mehhl81 "Authoritarianism is a form of government characterized by the rejection of political plurality, the use of a strong central power to preserve the political status quo, and reductions in the rule of law, separation of powers, and democratic voting. Political scientists have created many typologies describing variations of authoritarian forms of government. Authoritarian regimes may be either autocratic or oligarchic in nature and may be based upon the rule of a party or the military." Where people thought the rules were too strict, votes happened, and the people you think of as authoritarians were replaced, which is the opposite of what authoritarianism is. In places where the citizenry agreed with the actions taken, the politicians were retained. By a vote. And the rule of law. So, from what I can tell, what you're describing just... didn't happen.
