>>936424071>sometimes it needs a theocratic dictatorshipOh, right. you think Iran is doing well under its theocracy? Afghanistan? you think Saudi Arabia's a glowing beacon of tolerance and freedom? Go there and raise a glass of wine to toast them and see how the mutawa secret police treat you. Spain during the Inquisition? Britain during the Puritans of the civil war, where people were being burnt at the stake?
you think that the people of Chile, and East Germany liked their dictatorships, with secret police, and people "disappearing"? are you so fucking stupid that you think "oh, it wont happen to me! no, the eye of the state wont possibly ever look at me, only the people I want to suffer"
Do you think that the people of Fascist Italy under Mussolini were "free"? or those of General Franco's Spain, with its masked paramilitaries who arrested people for being even slightly non-conformist in any way?
if you think any country "needs" that, you are a complete idiot.
