A President that answers to no one is called a dictator.

@SerenityM54L2SAM5L5N1 3 роки тому
Dictators aren't elected by its people. Dictators can't be withdrawn by the Senate. Dictators wouldn't be limited by several different institutions, checks and balances and the constitution. Pro-dictatorship pundits and any independent watchdogs are fully aware that the US is a form of a representative democracy where citizens decides the outcome of who becomes the president, which senators/representatives should represent each state/city in the House/Senate and which governors should rule a decentralized state/city in the United States. If Trump was an actual dictator, I'm sure you'd notice. Because you'd probably be stuck behind a jail cell for questioning the system. A lot of issues would've been solved without having to pander to the people or Congress. BLM would've been crushed in three minutes. The police officers handling the long-term convict back in May would've been given a medal for protecting their nation from decadence (and maybe criticized for not tackling and handling the convict hard enough).

real anarchy would probably involve poor people being shot. as well as rich people black people blonde people and more generally peoplepeople doing bad thing to other people... for a while. things would settle down quickly to a sort of social equilibrium, peolple don't naturally want to just destroy others. the problem is what balance would arrise, it could be almost the same lifestyle as today with bakers continuing to bake their bread and exange it for stuff or money or a despotic asshole taking power by force... i think its something we should study more and think about, the concept is interesting in an abstrac social/philosophical way sure but more importantly that's where at least some if not most countries are going... at the end of the 21rst century the world will be much more harsh and inhabitable and nobody is planning anything

He does. He also knows that the concept of utopia is a highly subjective one. He is echoing THEIR perspective, expecting you as the self-reliant viewer that you are, to understand that THEIR utopia is not going to be yours. Hitler wanted to create a utopia for the German people (and the world, he thought). We know that, and we also understand that that doesn't make people standing in his way the bad guys.

Instead, all that's happenned is everything's gotten even more polarized, and the DNC did everything in their power, and actually succeded, in just trying to get back to the earlier years, where everything is fucked up beyond belief all the same, just not with a complete moron at the helm. Al in all, the US is fucked to a point that's even hard to believe, something that will just keep going when the democrats are back, and meanwhile people are focusing on the last stupidity that comes out of Trumps mouths, as if what he's been doing is that much worse than the last 40 years.

@@pills- I think (being charitable to John Oliver here) what you've missed is the difference between 'unrest' (when the status quo is disturbed) and 'real anarchy' (complete disorder, hierarchical breakdown, no government, no status quo), because Oliver was talking about the latter. The point being made imo is that without the institutions of the state (police, laws, military etc.) to protect them the rich/elite would be the first targets. Sure, the massed poor, having removed their former oppressors would then likely turn on themselves (as famously happened in Revolutionary France). But the point wasn't that 'in real anarchy the poor won't get shot', merely that they won't be shot 'first'.

Snowden is pretty much a traitor. He turned the american people against surveillance and anti-terror campaigns by releasing what he did for no reason. No innocent person has been targeted by the surveillance tactics. Snowden released a bunch of info that jeopardized US national security and NSA's way of conducting scrutiny and examination. In a way, he deserves to be punished.

Apparently Japanese internment was just a nice little vacation. Not to mention the "Patriot Act," Its funny how back in the 2000's the conservatives were all "I'd gladly give up my liberty to protect my freedom" when a couple thousand people died to terrorist attacks, but 200,000+ people die from a pandemic and they're all "GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH".

Yes, but our country in its purest form was founded with the knowledge that people are going to have different opinions and different blind spots. The pro Trumpers believe the rest of us have the blind spots while they see clearly. It is their right to think so. And we will never convince someone who needs to be right that they’re wrong (a very emotionally charged word at best) by telling them they are wrong. We have to show respect to teach respect. Nevertheless I’m glad and relieved of the outcome of this election and hoping it will not turn into a more catistrophic time for our country between now and Jan. 20th.
