You can hate it all you want-nuclear deterrents, but the world we currently have is preventing a lot worse. The world you want is gone. It’s not coming back in my generation or yours, not your children’s. We would need to be a lot more violent to fix this.

That country is living under the delusion that dictators can be good, and the law matters less than charisma.

And you like that?

Huh, sure.

Go say to any French person that de Gaule or Napoleon were dictators and see the result
