Benito Mussolini

PS he died in 1946 and Donald Trump was born in 1946 so that means Donald Trump is the reincarnation of Benito Mussolini. Also he's the reincarnation of Geirge S. Patton who in turn was the reincarnation of various soldiers across history.

Lee Kuan Yew. Unfucked Singapore.

"Repression, Sir is a habit that grows. I am told it is like making love-it is always easier the second time! The first time there may be pangs of conscience, a sense of guilt. But once embarked on this course with constant repetition you get more and more brazen in the attack. All you have to do is to dissolve organizations and societies and banish and detain the key political workers in these societies. Then miraculously everything is tranquil on the surface. Then an intimidated press and the government-controlled radio together can regularly sing your praises, and slowly and steadily the people are made to forget the evil things that have already been done, or if these things are referred to again they're conveniently distorted and distorted with impunity, because there will be no opposition to contradict."

Really makes you think.

Basic take-home story is that a good dictator/king is the best government out there. Period. "Democracy" looks like pleb-tier mob rule when compared to a government led by an excellent autocrat.

The only catch is that they are few and far between.

>reincarnation of Benito Mussolini. Also he's the reincarnation of Geirge S. Patton
So a combo of insufferable egotistical douchebags. Fitting, save Trump isn't fit to smell the dogshit off their shoes

>>1712852
No

The take away is that for a good democracy to arise from a third world cultural backwater a dictator can certainly provide a guiding hand.

>>1712885
This.

All the "good" dictators just knew when to step aside or died at the right time. A dictatorial government in itself won´t be as stable and prospering as a good democracy in the long run. Good dictators as they call here are the best option in times of crises or big change and for societies not yet ready for western style democracy.

>Ran for three terms cause fuck the constitution
>Imprisoned citizens specifically because of their ethnicity
>Made a plethora of confusing gun laws with draconian penalties for breaking them
>Expanded the US military to unprecedented levels

Truly an absolute madman.

Sternberg.

I mean, he was a terrible dictator and probably the evilest man to live in the 20th century, but goddamn do I want to see a world where he won.

"Gabriel over the White House"

Plot Summary: The president of the united states is a useless do nothing who cares more about girls than solving the country's problems. However, after an accident sends him into a coma, he is possess by the Archangel Gabriel. When he awakes, his personality is completely changed and he becomes a populist radical. He begins unilaterally run a massive jobs program very reminiscent of FDR's "New Deal" programs. When congress objects to his new self-declared power, he simply dissolves congress. His next move is to create a new federal police force (literally called the "Federal Police") who arrest suspected criminals and execute them after brief military-style tribunals. And keep in mind, all of this is presented as being good, the work of an angel. At the end of the movie, the President gives a speech declaring the USA (with himself as dictator) to be the world's sole legitimate authority and delivers an ultimatum that says all other countries must disarm immediately. This leads to world peace. The end.

FDR saw an early screening of the movie and the film was edited according to suggestions he made. FDR saw the movie again several times after its official release. Now it is a work of fiction, of course, but it does seem to wholeheartedly endorse the concept of a populist dictator seizing control of the system. It is not a parody or comedy, and the President's actions within the movie are portrayed as being heroic.

This guy. Sure his legacy might only tale up a small footnote in most US history books, and he was incredibly corrupt, even by Louisiana standards, but he's easily one of the most entertaining and likeable dictators (if I can be permitted to call him that) to have ever lived.
