Libya proves the point that trying to install democracy without civil society cohesion and education is a waste of time. It had those things under authoritarian rule but has since been destroyed and it's attempt to revitalize it under democracy has been chaotic.
Democracy has always been chaotic in 100% of countries, even Americans increasingly don't want that brain rot system anymore.
There is a legit 1/4 of the population
openly calling for autocracy and this is rising.
Imagine in China if 1/4 of the population demanded that they install American-style liberal idiocracy there, haha,
It wouldn't even happen in a dream.
They know that they are cooked and looking for solutions.
It is just that they, along with many elites like Musk, believe that Trump is their autocratic efficient savior and not the catalyst for a sooner collapse.
It is clear that democracy failed even in the West, it simply can't work for the long term under any circumstances, even theoretically.
And this is just the support for Trump to do it if he loses,
without any valid reason needed, whereas he could probably find a few reasons to present always as election irregularities. In reality, it is probably around 1/3 of the support for Trump's autocracy as this illustrates,
A December
found that 36 percent of US adults did not believe Biden was legitimately elected, compared to 29 percent two years prior. And in a Pew Research poll conducted earlier this month,
said that Trump did nothing wrong in trying to overturn the election results,
.
And keep in mind that whereas democrats are a lot more passive than Trumpists, they have a certain percentage of voters probably supporting autocracy of their own rule, open or covert, either from preventing Trump takeover or because they also feel like it.
If we take it all as combined, I would probably say that close to 50% don't support the current political system anymore.
Imagine them then constantly criticizing China which has a 95%+ supported system, and propping up your system that failed and even you yourself don't want anymore.
This is like half of China wanting to adopt the Western system and we would hear no end to it from them bragging and making fun of if then.
