    They’re only allowed to be voted out after they establish the rules of the game lmao. Military dictators are just puppets of capital used to organize society with force and when capital is happy with it they just move on from them. It’s absurd to think they were voted out lmao. Every single liberal democracy that evolved from a military dictatorship still uses the constitution written by the dictators, i.e. Spain.












  • Democracy has as a necessary precondition that people are intelligent enough to differentiate good candidates from bad candidates.

    This is just fundamentally impossible, 99.9% of people only relation to candidates is what they see in social media or other ads. People really have no idea who they’re choosing and its entirely a vibes based decision, i.e. candidate A speaks elocuently, candidate B is charming, etc…
