What are the positive aspects of having a dictator?

death of bureaucracy

...

Neat party uniforms

National identity, free soap and lampshades

shit gets done

benevolent dictator is the best form of government.

sadly, his children will be significantly less so, leading to his empire growing and thriving under him, and then brutally falling apart afterwards.

They are more careful about pissing off their citizens and they want to keep their country nice.

Think of it this way: if you're a dictator, you've got your country for life. Perhaps some day you will pass it on to your son. Like an old 1969 Chevy Corvette, you keep it looking nice and running well and some day your son will have it, and he'll pass it on etc etc.

Compare this to democracy, where you have someone leasing a used car. They don't give a shit. They will trash that fucking thing, put on tons of mileage, not change the oil a single fucking time, etc. Because at the end of the day, what's the worst that will happen?

If a dictator fucks up his country bad, his people will kill him, he will be vilified, and the country that he loves will be trashed beyond repair.

If a democratically elected official fucks up, they literally do not give a single flying fuck, because they only had it for 4/8/10/etc years or so, it will not be passed down to their family or close friends, and they still get a pension after they retire regardless if they did good or bad.

It's like communism, ironically. What motivation do you have to be a harder worker than the guy next to you if you get paid the same anyways?

Efficiency.

Like most forms of government, a dictatorship isn't inherently bad. It's just that they're usually headed by incompetent or malevolent people

Retards don't get to vote.

This. You're only as properous as your leader. You get Caesar, good. You get Nero, not good.

It's too fickle and it does not take long to get a bad one.

Shit gets done. Problem is in time they go crazy and dictators tend to hate freedom including financial freedim so the economy goes to shit and the coyntry becomes shit or unable to get out of shit.

I would be a dictator of liberty. A guardian of freedom!

>sadly, his children will be significantly less so, leading to his empire growing and thriving under him, and then brutally falling apart afterwards.


This. Through Rome's emperors and the Europe's various monarchies you've already seen the outcomes.

Boom years under proper management of a lord with a plan. Terrible bust periods when greed and incompetence turns it all to dust.

Depends on the dictator. Benevolent Dictators is what we want.

Short life.
Eventual violent death.
Eternity in hell.

Clarity of vision
Operational efficiency
Social unity

Dictatorship started in the ancient world as an emergency-mandated necessity; it lets governments move quickly, without discussion or gridlock.

The ideal form of government is a benevolent, hyper-competent dictator. The advantages of this are numerous: he can take immediate, decisive action in emergencies, can make a state that is utterly incorruptible because its highest source of authority cannot be swayed by bribes or intimidation, and can quickly enact reforms unhindered by compromise or pork barreling that prevents them from being effective in democratic societies. Of course, these are all traits that make dictatorships extremely dangerous if the autocrat isn't benevolent or competent.

There is no such thing as "benevolent" dictator you pathetic, cowardly, sniveling cunts.

This

t. Benevolent dictatorship post-dictator that made the country great

There is no such thing as a "benevolent" government in general. All governments are designed to steal from their citizens and promote nothing but their own power. Any benefits handed down in the process to the People are just a by-product of the meatgrinder.

Julius Caesar begs to differ. There's a reason he was beloved by the plebs. The primary issue with benevolent dictatorships is they outlive their benevolence and you invariably just end up with a regular old dictatorship.

Everthing is great if you agree with them. Iffy with helicopter rides if you disagree.

None.

Source: I lived in a dictatorship.

It really depends on the nature of said dictator, as well as the political structure. Is it an absolute monarchy? A totalitarian communist dictatorship? A fascist state?
