Here's the thing, the one with US backing has the claim, it's that easy.
unless you are backed by russia and china, then you have the claim, but will be a declared dictatorship by westeners.

i was joking and not very serious with the comment, i thought that would be clear, i am sorry
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poe%27s_law
are my "views" really that extreme, if i can think of two real life exemples for my joke? (North Korea & Afghanistan) i would rather say it was nieche, but extreme views?
Missing the point. The point is someone who was being serious could have said the same thing, which is why you were downvoted.
the thing is, the original commentor said kinda that, but from pro-US POV. i just wanted to remind everybody, that US is not the sole decider for a existing state, because there is alot of states in history and present, that are not backed by US, but by the other super powers on this earth.
i even got some more famous examples: Cuba, Myanmar and the other two African Countries that were couped in recent past.
Then that's what you should have said.
yeah, or you could maybe not react butthurt because you dont understand to read in between the lines. i said nothing wrong, but nieche, and then i was lectured about the definition of dictatorship and poes law. this is still a memes website, dont take everything so damn serious!
You still don't understand poes law.
again, i dont need to explain that it is ment as a joke on a MEME WEBSITE, where nothing should be taken seriously. if you visit this website to look for facts and truth, then i am sorry for you.
its just impressive, that you didnt use the same energy to call out the original commenter for the same mistake i made: putting a extreme scenario that is somewhat true! i kinda get the feeling you are just biased....
Cool story bro, missing the point.
