The 8 types of government[1]
1. The 8 Types of GovernmenT
2. The 8 Types of GovernmenT Democracy monarchy republicanism ToTaliTarianism fascism DicTaTorship communism oliGarchy
3. Democracy The word democracy comes from ancient Greek words meaning ‘people’ and ‘rule of government’. It is a system of governmentof a country whose leaders have been elected by the people. When the elected representatives meet in parliament to make laws, the form ofgovernment is a parliamentary democracy.
4. monarchy A monarchy is a form of government led by anindividual who holds the position for life, having inherited the position, and who passes it on to a relative, usually a son or daughter.  In the past, all monarchs held great power andmade all of the decisions and laws of the country.This is known as absolute monarchy. Today most monarchs act as Head of State, filling a ceremonial role with little or no power regarding the actual governing of the country.A constitutional monarchy is a country which has a written Constitution that sets out the rules for how the country will be governed and the rights and responsibilities of its people, and has a
5. republicanismA republic is a country whose head of government is anelected or chosen president. Sometimes the president isalso the Head of State, for example the President of the United States. Presidents are usually elected for aspecific length of time. This is called a ‘term of office’. In some countries a president may only serve a particular number of terms. A republic may or may not be democratic. In a democratic republic, the people choose their leaders through elections, although in countries where thepresident is a ceremonial role, it may be by government appointment rather than by election. In some undemocratic republics the leaders are chosenby a small number of people and may stay in office fora long time, sometimes without ever being elected or re-
6. ToTaliTarianism In a totalitarian society, the government holds absolute control over all aspects of the lives of its people. A set of beliefs is imposed onthe people, who have to conform or face unpleasant consequences. This formof government came into being in the 1920s when the Fascist governmentsof Italy and Nazi Germany came into power.
7. fascism Fascism is a form of government usually headedby a dictator. It involves total government control of political, economic, cultural, religious and social activities. Some industries may be owned by individuals, but under government control. This form of government includes extreme patriotism, warlike policies and extreme discrimination against minority groups.
8. DicTaTorship In a dictatorship, one person, called a Dictator, has absolute power. This differs from totalitarianism in that it is lesscontrolling and not marked by a rigid set of beliefs. Sometimes a country run bydictatorship may be called a republic. Suchrepublics have only one political party and the Dictator makes most government policies and decisions.
9. communismCommunism is an economic system in which there is little or no private ownership - property is heldby the community rather than by individuals. Alleconomic activity is controlled by the government, including things like what crops are grown, what goods are manufactured, and to whom they are sold and at what prices. The decisions made by Communist governments are those that are normally made by private individuals in non- Communist countries. Communist governments are usually a form of totalitarianism, and traditionally allow onlyapproved candidates to stand for election and there is usually little or no choice of candidates at an election.
10. oliGarchy An oligarchy is a form of government inwhich only a few wealthy people hold power. A republic may be an oligarchy if just a few people have the right to vote. Anexample of this was the time of apartheid inSouth Africa. In most oligarchies, the power of the leadership is supported by the wealthy and the military.


Even this is simplistic--but Draconic this gives you an idea of the flavors of govt.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?<br />Then he is not omnipotent,<br />Is he able but not willing?<br />Then whence cometh evil?<br />Is he neither able or willing?<br />Then why call him god?

Does this not fit the orange monster to a T???

fascism: Fascism is a form of government usually headed-by a dictator. It involves total government control of political, economic, cultural, religious and social activities. Some industries may be owned by individuals, but under government control. This form of government includes extreme patriotism, warlike policies and extreme discrimination against minority groups.

This is what he is aiming for.  He is even giving bigly hints that he may or may not accept the results of 2020 election.  If he can get his secret police operating as he hopes he can, he will be willing to start a civil war to become a fascist dictator.

When I first saw this thread, I thought it would be about secret police or the concentration camp thing or the rise of nationalism or the "ethnostate" stuff.  lol, nope.
I think it's called a hasty generalization.

Better than a generalization while under hallucinogens, right?

"Biden, at Muslim voters summit, says ‘I wish we taught more in our schools about the Islamic faith’" … ban teaching Christianity, bring in Islam and pussy hats … this is what you druggies are voting for

"2020 Election Shaping Up To Be Most Litigated In US History; Over 150 Cases Already Filed" … hence time for the military, and line the civilians up for the firing squad

"Words mean whatever I say they mean" … Humpty Dumpty.  This character was based on a murdered English landlord (in Ireland).  Guess the peasants weren't impressed by his Oxbridge education.

Quote from: Sal1981 on July 19, 2020, 07:19:35 PMIt has always meant to mean authoritarian fucks who want to control other people's behavior and limiting their freedom. What has happened in the U.S. is that the fascists, knowing that their reprehensible excuse of an ideology - which used to be underground - has been given a boost by Trump & Co., they've grown more confident in espousing their idiocy. It used to be that they dog whistled their moronic beliefs in an attempt to affect people, who had no convictions either way, to agree with their authoritarian takes. But now the fascists have pretty much dropped their facade and are out in the open.

This doctor was operating out in the open giving estrogen to inmates as an experimental treatment for ODD.  I don't see how he got a boost from Trump though.
White privilege is being a lifelong racist, then being sent to the White House twice because your running mate is a minority.<br /><br />No Biden, no KKK, no Fascist USA!

Dems are saints, Repubs are devils.  Trump is Mephistopheles ... right hand man of the Devil himself.  See, these post-Christian atheists are closet Jesuits.  They see a secular devil everywhere.  I agree, but I am sufficiently self aware to remain a theist.
