People who advocate authoritarian regimes always imagine the regimes doing what _they_ think should be done and are always surprised when those in power do something else. Authoritarian regimes ofeten devour their own (dissenting) children as has been the case in every communist regime.

To anyone who thinks an autoritarian regime is a good idea I would say “even if they do the opposite of what you think?” Because once they are in power you will have no say as there is only room for one dictator.
