Dictators are untrustworthy. News flash. CNN breaking news. The more you know meme, etc, etc. Such deep insight there. I think we are all aware that dictators are untrustworthy, Helios. "Dictators are bad" is a very shallow argument and I don't think the obvious needs to be pointed out time and time again. Let's get past that. Dictators bad. Yes. We're all on the same page in that regard.
