So consider this:&#xA;&#xA;- Dictator/non dictator is a weaponized label, Trump is democratically elected, but he acts as a dictator. Putin is (arguably) democratically elected and acts as a dictator.&#xA;&#xA;In fact, most governments is dictatorial, and that&#39;s why there are so many anarchists.&#xA;&#xA;I would not use the label because they are favorable to the west, just semantically.&#xA;&#xA;- There are advantages to representative democracy (Modi, Trump): There is a need to not be too overt so as to not let people know that power behind the scenes is pulling all the strings (and they are)&#xA;&#xA;- There are advantages to dictatorships (Putin, Xi): The dictator is clearly a target, everyone wants him dead, and he will die and someone new will come in.  Putin will die and something else will come to be. &#xA;&#xA;- The disadvantage of dictatorship is that you effectively have a &#34;King&#34; who could and usually do crazy nasty shit.&#xA;&#xA;- The disadvantage of representative democracy is that the system will never change. 95% of people think the problem is the &#34;other&#34; party, and that voting is the key to a good government. So you will live forever in an oligarchy that gets shittier and over time.&#xA;&#xA;Since there are advantages and disadvantages to both, and the label is weaponized by western (Zionist owned) media. Wouldn&#39;t it be better to stop relying on labels and arguing whether a the leader (or the oligarchy that control the leader) is good or bad? &#xA;&#xA;I would.&#xA;&#xA;BTW, there is monarchy and theocracy, probably more...  and they suck much worse.</html></oembed>
