I can't believe I'm writing this, but I might vote for Trump over Biden in the coming election. And I HATE Trump? Why? Because I know what to expect from him--selfishness. Will he become a dictator? I doubt it. The guy after him, probably. So why vote for him?
There is no other side. The Democrats don't stand for a single moral principle, they do nothing but enrich themselves and for that, they allow young people to have sex change operations without judgment or alarm.
So the sooner society realizes how autocracy is bad--get's a good strong taste of it--then I don't see anything changing. WWII taught by example.
It's like your friend said. If people really cared about other people, in America, they would tell their Democratic power brokers to do something. But they don't. Everyone turns away. Think about it. Biden sent 15,000 tank shells to Israel AFTER it had killed 10,000 women and children.
What country, or people, does that sound like?
