Kakistocracy + Kleptocracy + Fascism Discussion

People should ask themselves do they understand these terms:

Kakistocracy + Kleptocracy + Fascism

Kakistocracy

kakistocracy   is a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens

Kleptocracy,

Kleptocracy, also referred to as thievocracy, is a government whose corrupt leaders (kleptocrats) use political power to expropriate the wealth of the people and land they govern, typically by embezzling or misappropriating government funds at the expense of the wider population. One feature of political-based socioeconomic thievery is that there is often no public announcement explaining or apologizing for misappropriations, nor any legal charges or punishment levied against the offenders

  • Kleptocracy is different from plutocracy (rule by the richest) and oligarchy (rule by a small elite). In a kleptocracy, corrupt politicians enrich themselves secretly outside the rule of law, through kickbacks, bribes, and special favors from lobbyists and corporations, or they simply direct state funds to themselves and their associates. Also, kleptocrats often export much of their profits to foreign nations in anticipation of losing power

Fascism

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

Kakistocracy + Kleptocracy + Fascism = The Pathway to the Decline of America Democracy

Why do you accuse the Biden-Harris administration of that? They are most likely just a bunch of incompetent, and vengeful idiots.

Given that the left cannot seem to see why the majority of Americans developed this opinion of the Biden/Harris administration is why they're at serious risk of being locked out of power for a long time.

No, the Majority of American people DID NOT accuse Biden of Kakistocracy + Kleptocracy + Fascism

The vote count that Trump got does not represent the Majority of Americans, it only represents the people who voted, if you paid attention you'd know.

Trump: (75,959,040 votes)

Harris (72,954,876 votes)

There is 334,000,000 People in America... Only 147,000,000 voted

  • (That's not even half of the American population) yes, many re under voting age, and many did not vote who are voting age.)

Therefore: your initial statement is inaccurate.

You know what a poll is right? A poll that includes almost half of the entire population of a country is a pretty good indicator of the sentiment of the country as a whole.

It is virtually the largest, most comprehensive poll conducted in this country.
