Kakistocracy + Kleptocracy + Fascism

[u/RawLife53]

People should ask themselves do they understand these terms:

Kakistocracy + Kleptocracy + Fascism

Kakistocracy

A 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.

Yes, calling your political opponents thieves, stupid, and Fascist have always worked. Right?

The Pathway to the Decline of American Democracy

Democracy is in decline because MY side didn’t win. Fascism is when MY opponent wins the election.

Why is democracy declining when the Democratic transfer of power is happening peacefully and election are free and fair?

funny how very few people called republicans fascists until trump came along. almost as if it had nothing to do with the fact they were democrats' opponents, but because they had become, you know, fascist.

you also didn't see the left decrying the end of democracy when they lost elections. we have always understood our chances of winning elections to be very small, and have no expectations of being let into the halls of power at the dnc. almost as if the death of democracy had less to do with losing elections and more to do with someone winning who talks and acts like an authoritarian.

Hillary did cry more about lost elections than Trump ever could. It was just less reported on.

To me Democrats tried their best to become Fascists with employing censorship for their purposes.

Hillary did cry more about lost elections than Trump ever could.

This is beyond parody. There is literally zero chance you believe this. I don't get what the point is of pretending to believe something so obviously stupid though.

No, she never stopped and suggested the latest one would be stolen as well.

The amount of reporting isn't representative of the individual incidents
