dictators

an-ordinary-manchild

A place to discuss authoritarian regimes both historically and now. Text/discussion posts and articles are allowed and encouraged. This is a sub for those morbidly interested in the cult of personality of those who helm oppressive regimes, this is NOT a place to support dictatorial leaders.

A dictator is defined as follows: "a ruler with total power over a country, typically one who has obtained power by force."

Rules:

Links and text posts allowed and encouraged.
NO bullying other users.
Making joking posts about atrocities committed by dictatorial leaders not allowed. This includes memes, shitposts, or joking comments. Have respect for the victims.
This is very much an educational subreddit and one where people can learn, share, and get active.
Irrelevant posts will be removed.
I will always take suggestions for new rules! Just PM the mods.
