There is a chinese guy who should be up there on 2nd.
Wdym China is a democracy. They have elections.
/s I’m not from .ml
They have elections
This is true, internal elections thats not publicized and people only know about it when new face sits on top.
While I get the sentiment, neither of those fuckers is even in the top three of present day fascist dictators.
Maduro, maybe not (though I’m always in favor of bringing negative attention to autocratic fucks, especially when their regimes are balancing on a knife’s edge), but Putin, definitely, and Trump, potentially by the sheer damage he could wreak at the helm of the USA.
The jury is definitely still out on Donnie Poopypants, let’s hope we never find out. But Kim and Xi definitely take one and two and three to me is a toss-up between Berdimuhamedow (Turkmenistan) and Mohammed bin Salman (Saudi Arabia).
Putin’s gone hard facism though.
Depends if population size matters in your calculations or not I guess.
If it doesn’t, Kim is number 1
I was going by the actual degree of repression achieved, not by the personal attitude of the asshole in chief.
Imagine supporting any of these fucking CLOWNS
Now Lukashenko is sad.
Luka only gets the consolation potato.
Maduro is a dictator without question, but you can’t really call him a fascist.
I don’t know what more you want from a paranoid totalitarian antidemocratic government telling easily disproven lies in an effort to enforce their view of reality over the population, rousing a cult of personality, pursuing revanchist claims, and in general embracing palingenetic ultranationalism.
What is Maduro missing? That the elites backing him are government oligarchs instead of market oligarchs? That he’s painted red?
Fascism involves tolerating and cooperating closely with private industry as a defining trait. I thought Venezuela was all state owned but I could be wrong
Umberto Eco’s 14 points marks no such point as essential to fascism, nor does Roger Griffin. Fascist economic attitudes are… complex and inconsistent. All that can be said reliably is that they are neither interested in free enterprise (preferring a managerial class utterly subordinate to the state) or in any actual form of socialism (neutering trade unions and ensuring that democratic workplaces do not come about)
Maybe something like a hybrid (totalitarian/constitutional dictatorship) developing petrostate dictatorship?
Isn’t fascism very loosely defined? Is it because Maduro seized power but doesn’t have other characteristics of fascism? Just curious it’s a newer situation and I’m fussy about the details.
Yo where’s erdogan
Two of them have many idiots bafflingly convinced that they are “communists”.
All three have many of those same idiots and more, stupefyingly convinced that they are “peoples’ champions”.
Trump may be an aspiring fascist dictator but this is giving him way too much credit
Yeah, dude’s merely a wannabe.
For now.

Pretty sure we can find dictators much worse than either of them, only Putin and Trump have major international impact on that podium, Xi should be on there and if we’re only looking at their local impact then get rid of Trump and Putin and put Hibatullah Akhundzada and Kim Jong Un on there…
