Woke: recognizing that competent americans do not exist, and that Biden will be replaced by someone even dumber than Trump (but also more fascist)

    Hungary was a fascist government for 25 years before Soviets liberated them

    Franco ruled spain for what...36 years

    Salazars fascist government ruled Portugal for 42 years

    Most of the eastern bloc was "free" from the soviet union to pursue liberal democracy and 30 years later Hungary and Poland have slipped essentially back to their catholic brand of fascism they were pre ww2

    They're more competant than you think

      Yeah, not really sure how Salazar and Franco managed to stay in power for so long, but I do kind of remember that they had radically different economies compared to Nazi Germany and Mussolinis Italy. For the South American dictatorships, they were all kept afloat by a lot of loans by the IMF if I recall correctly.
