@nowthisimpact: Don’t call it a dictatorship, call it an oligarchy. Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) is flipping the pages of the dictionary to define Trump’s second term. #dictatorship #oligarchy
I had an ancient history prof say “remember, democracy will descend into an oligarchy, an oligarchy into dictatorship and then it will collapse. Then it will repeat”

Is isn't already an Oligarchy when most of the political decision maker take bribes, lobbying and highly control by industry sectors like pharmaceutical, military, technology and manufacturing 🤔

Plato’s progression—aristocracy (rule by the best), timocracy (rule by the honor-bound), oligarchy (rule by the wealthy), democracy (rule by the many), and finally tyranny (rule by one)

we already have an oligarchy. I was part of a group project in grad school and my section of the slides talked about why we are and I'll never forget the look of agreement on my prof face

we've had an oligarchy, it's just that the income disparity is finally getting too large for the average person to ignore

Democrats have also been implicit in creating this oligarchy but republicans will fill it with more evil oligarchs.

We have an Oligopoly. The oligarchs own all the shares in the monopolized businesses. Private equity firms already own the world. It's not come, it's already here. Reagan made sure of that.

The fact that American politicians can actively hold stocks of companies that interact with committees they sit on and influence is the start. Add in funding for campaigns etc - corruption baked in.

An oligarchy essentially IS a dictatorship. It's a form of authoritarian government. Russia is run by oligarchs. They fund Putin.

I remember our 7th grade teacher stressing the understanding of oligarchy to us…i think she was warning us because she taught us history & not just what they wanted her to teach.

We've been in an oligarchy for a awhile, we're just heading into a far right oligarchy now. Which was the inevitable outcome of dems prioritizing courting billionaires over the people.

When “reganomics” was implemented.. this was exactly what they said the final result would be. A class system that comes down to only the super wealth, and the poor. Collapse is imminent.

The problem with this is they’re about to cut us out entirely. Why do they need us at all once AI makes up the majority of the workforce. We won’t even have labor movements to fight with at that point
