I think people completely lost the concept of what vile tyrant really is. You've never seen tyrant at work in your entire life, and you should be happy about it.
People aren't saying Trump has ever ruled as a tyrant; but it's very clear that he'll try and make real progress on his mission towards tyranny. Let's remember that this is Donald "I will send the military after protesters" Trump. If America makes it out of his term without becoming a dictatorship, it definitely won't be for lack of effort.
So when he refused to give up the job and started a deadly riot on the Capital wherein he tried to get his VP lynched, that was just standard managerial conduct? Neat.
Son, did you ever hear about atrocities committed by Joseph Stalin?

This shit happened. Trump is a jackass, but he ain't close to the real totalitarian leaders.
Thanks daddy
So glad that the world is moving closer to tyrant instead of further away from it. Except that I’m not at all happy about that.
Three hurrahs for regression!
Just gotta look to Russia
I haven't, but Americans sure as hell are about to
Finally, some perspective to the over exaggerated claims.
And mass downvotes because my post doesn't fit the narrative
Don't worry, upvotes and downvotes don't mean shit on Lemmy. They mean zero. They're just for show.
