Beside the point. His claim wasn’t that elections staged by authoritarians aren’t free and fair, but that they don’t happen, full stop.
Which is why I expressed it they way I did.

The trigger baby wants to have a discussion about trigger words.
Do you agree with the fascists, or do you believe that The Donald is not a fascist?

This belief, itself, isn't ignorance, but a true assessment of the wedge politics that those who benefit from dysfunction have put in place to effortlessly divide us so that they might conquer us for profit and better merchandising opportunities.
this is not even a matter of having more. this is a matter of not having anything because i do not know how to manage what i do have. having more in this case means spending more. look at the fighters and sports superheros. who play this idea of having more is the answer to all your problems. the issue here is finical wisdom and discipline. their nor any other economy will suffer fools very long/till their money runs out.

so it should be. the government does not own you money. it owes us what is in the constitution and bill of rights only. any thing else is above and beyond. IE don't plan your life on it.

You just quoted me explaining that you're not ignorant, simply propagandized. Thank you for demonstrating my point while believing that you were arguing against it. I'm not actually convinced of your business acumen, and I know that you don't give a shit about fiscal wisdom or discipline. You voted for a man who ran casinos into the ground while stiffing his contractors and declaring bankruptcy....multiple times. The same man who is currently raiding our government coffers for everything that isn;t nailed down (and some of the shit that is) to give his buddies and himself handouts. I know that you don't care about constitutional guarantees for precisely the same reason.

And you're assuming that it's impossible for an authoritarian to come to power in a democratic society how, exactly? By your logic, Hitler's rise to power in the Weimar Republic could never have happened. In reality, This has happened multiple times throughout history.
Read what I said dumbass and take your strawman home with u.
I said a fascist leader does not hold elections. A dictator doesn't give up power

Mussolini, a Fascist authoritarian, was elected Prime Minister in 1924. Five years later, he held another election. Five years after that, he held another election.
Putin, an authoritarian by anyone’s standards, holds elections like clockwork.
Where on earth did you get the idea that authoritarians leaders don’t hold elections?
Boru
Ur just trying to avoid the obvious fact.
Fascists are dictators.
The west has no dictators

Fascist leaders do hold elections. You were wrong. Oh well, learn something every day, right?

Exactly. Intentionally dodging the point...

Cute rule. One that you've just made up. Still unclear on what the issue with your made up rule is.
Do you agree with fascists and believe that The Donald isn't fascist enough because you expect him to hold an election?

The mental gymnastics required to make things adhere to an ideology is just mind boggling...
Fact - A fascist leader is a dictator. No western country has a dictator
The op asks if this is still about BLM. I've proven that it's about more than that.
I've proven that it's driven by a neo marxist ideology as told by a BLM co-founder...
Nuff said. Peace out communists
