Tito
Literally the least amount of du to cry dindu about.
Kept his country Stable and successful with a relatively large amount of freedom. Also he gained control by being a badass who led the liberation of his country from a foreign nation which is a plus.

Napoleon
Relatively clean record, genuis , stood by a lot of the revolutionary principles and presided over unprecedented success for France.

Alexander

The economic policies that made Chile great would've never happened without him though. Terrible man, but the system needed to be shocked.

Pinochet actively fucked the economy though. The reforms that make it not so bad today had to be made in spite of his legacy nothe because of it. I would've rather seen Allende follow through with Cybersyn if we're just going to applaud them for trying.

Not from my experience. He's controversial, but far from universally hated like many former dictators are. There just seems to be a ton of animosity over him "ruining" the revolution.

Hitler did what the smart do best and used segregation to fuel his ambition and then fizzled out like the pathetic fucking joke he was. Sociopaths and tyrants have been using us vs them for thousands of years to take power for themselves. It always ends terribly for people like Hitler and Trump.

caliphate had no authority. it isnt like muslims care about their religious institutes. its as realpolitik as it gets. go read a short history of islam, the way muslims behave and power relations stand are very tribal. take this as an unbiased opinion of a muslim.
>>
>>870858
Care to explain more?
>>
>>870864
when european or american people think about caliphate they imagine a catholic system like it was in europe but though there are natural similarities islam is a religion that insists it's text on how state is run and instills a state authority on people (it may get a bit different at schism on shia part but i dont know that side much)


So muslim rulers (quite oligarchic as lower classes are much more servient) from tradition has always cared about what they could gain from religion like any good ruler would. At the start of caliphate stuff they didnt even care about their prophet's wife and household. They were with prophet for the loot and they always went for the loot as good bedouins would. (i may be quite biased at this though, but that part doesnt have any decent historical evidence and couldnt possibly have, its storylike anyway)

So strong people clashed to have caliphate and it's authority under them and it went on and on like this. Ottomans slaughtered their own kin (they were also Turks) for the caliphate. kek. absolute madman.

Going to add that its said that Mamluks were straying away from religion and putting their leader's name before Allah or smth but its most likely war propaganda.

Also Ataturk, by abolishing caliphate aimed that his country would get closer to civilization and would be free of bedouin influence that would make us weaker and decadent. He also thought Turkey as an ideal country that would enlighten the eastern world in its own way, be an example and etc. i do support him on nearly everything, the guy is an unparalleled genius. read Grey Wolf by H. C. Armstrong if you want to know about him.

Don't Legend of the Galactic Heroes is not good. However you're going to ignore me anyway so here's some pointers:

>You can ignore the whole Reuhental and Rubinsky storylines. Rubinsky's storyline ends with him dying alone and all his alluded to planning and plotting genius summing up to shit and dick, Reuhental's ends with him dying after rebelling because plots and intrigue and not wanting to be the Terraist's pawn. So one's a big waste of time the other is retarded.

>Yang Wenli dies and is replaced in the story by his uncharismatic fuckboi, the little blonde fag. He goes on to win through a narrative asspull of him going on a suicide mission and "earning the emperor's respect" by fainting in front of him. The entirety of the Rosen Ritters die.

>There's tons of exposition, no I'm serious, TONS of exposition, there's at least 10 minutes of it per episode. It's all broken up but it's still boring as hell. For a visual medium this is is an inexcusable sin.

>Every single battle in the anime looks the same, don't believe me? Go on the wiki and find the battle section and look them up in Youtube, they'll all look the same.

>that exposition I was talking about? Tends to come up during the political sections. So they not only made the battles boring they made the politics boring too.

>the change in animation styles will be jarring and happen without warning, literally from scene to scene not even between episodes, prepare yourself for it.

>there's 110 episodes of this shit, and no, the quality at no point improves

Go to /a/ and ask for the guide that says what episodes you need to watch to understand the story and just watch those if you *really* like them watch the rest. Seriously overrated anime on 4chan this is mostly because it's not bad it's just boring as all hell so the fags that like it are vocal about it and the guys that don't just ignore it.

You can add to this that there's no world building at all. Not even a little, every planet is just another Earth and no details are said about any of them. Not even the two main power blocks are explained in detail as far as economic systems and production capabilities or main corporations go, it's all just left up in the air.

So if that's your thing with sci fi look somewhere else.
>>
>>865668
Your claim to having an opinion such that.
"In my opinion persecuting citizens i good"
cannot be refuted; it is in fact an opinion and your claim to ownership is your inalienable right.

However, persecution's goodness can be detached from your opinion and even from it's object 'citizens'.

So the objective nature of persecution can be determined in terms either related or unrelated to your opinion.

However, taking a stab at it,

If your opinion is that persecuting citizens is good, you must persecute (disagree with) yourself as a citizen or renounce your citizenship.

As such the position is untenable.

By contrast, the opposite opinion, that persecution is bad. Does not carry such a contradiction.
