The stuff they have been passing is more self and foriegner serving crime and media ignores the watchdogs, the other attacks on washi and the crimes they do stories and only plays epstein and trump 24/7.
If I thought it would be a short term dictatorship that would lynch them too and was easy to get out of I would be all for it today right now. Light a witch and lets press on.
But.....back to very old family thing. Can't ever remember a dictator saying "Ok we saved ourselves! Now vote in a congress and lets get back to real life I'd like to go home." - can't remember one time.
Of course many many that began shiny ideal to the cheers of the masses and ended up pustulent and "you can have the ring back when you pry it off my cold, dead hand!" - thats probably been the majority of those?
Plenty of cases where somebody said "Ok!" and actually did too.
But we have to successfully navigate the dictator cycle of our social "mileu" or end up with some less American style form. Its always the road back to freedom that requires a train wreck and so far we have avoided some but go headlong towards others. The ride so far has been one of those roller coasters with the 90 degree insta-turns 4 stories up.
