    I don’t know why Biden didn’t just go full dictator like Trump. Dictators that do the thing I want are actually good and there’s absolutely no possible repercussions.

      If a democrat went dictator they would immediately have the DOJ, entire media ecosystem, and courts united against them because those that support the democratic party recognize dictators as bad.

      I mean, I’d love a dictator who says “You must value trans rights as human rights, or to the Gulag with you!”, while running labor camps for… CEOs who underpay their janitors.

      The road to hell is paved with good intentions. There’s no good dictator and entertaining the idea is dangerous.
