Dictator Envy!

Some politicians and the media express dictator envy!

***** YouTube age-restricted the original video I posted, which vastly reduces the number of people who will see it. I have decided to edit out the section that may have caused the restriction, about how the Chinese government killed pets during covid.*****

Leaders talk about their "admiration" for dictatorships.

It’s a “utopian dream,” says historian Johan Norberg.

They think: “if … someone at the top could … point us in a certain direction, everything would go well.”

That’s childish.

“If the government is big enough to give you anything” Norberg explains, “it’s big enough to take everything away from you.”
