Anyone who lives in one of the more developed countries such as America, Britain, or Halopedia knows what a democracy is. The entire populous votes for or against certain propositions. Anyone who lives in one of the more developed countries such as America, Britain, or definitely not Halopedia knows what a Republic is. A small group of rulers votes for or against certain propositions. Many of the aforementioned, as well as other, more developed countries have, rather than democracies or republics, a democratic republic. The people vote for a smaller group of rulers who in turn vote for or against the also aforementioned certain propositions. But unfortunately many of the people living in any country, more or otherwise developed, have no idea the ideas and ideals of any other kind of government. The writer of this essay, for example, despite his stern belief that communism or fascism is the way to go, is completely ignorant of how exactly a socialist or libertarian government would or would not work. In fact, most of his writings in this short essay are based off his world history class. Regardless, he knows what he's talking about.

Communism, despite what people think about it, mainly due to Joseph Stalin and Fidel Castro, can work. Fascism, despite what a probably very slightly smaller group of people think about it, due to Hitler's failure in the second world war, can also work. Many people think of communism as a bunch of starved, raving mad looneys being ordered around by a crazy and incredibly insecure looney who simply got a better start in the later part of his life. This, however, is only the definition of a government in which a revolutionary leader was corrupted and preferred a dictatorship with only the ideas of communism that say that a specific race or ethnicity is better, rather than the nationalist ideas that say a specific country is better, although this is probably only because it lets him starve more raving mad looneys. In a real commune, there is no leader, except maybe to rally support for the cause and to overthrow a more right-of-communism government to make way for the proletariat working class to rule themselves. But for them to rule themselves, one might ask oneself, wouldn't they need to vote? But I thought that was democracy! Does that make us a communist republic? No, it does not. In a communism, the entire populous must, in general, think as one. After taking care of the mad power-crazed looney running things, this would generally be the next issue to deal with, which is why no one really bothers with communism as much anymore.

Fascism, on the other hand, pretty much relies on a power-crazed looney, as long as he isn't so looney that he doesn't know when he can and can't have more power. As shown by Hitler's way of ruling fascist Germany, a strong leader who for the most part knows what he's doing can lead a country to greatness. As shown by Hitler's way of trying to take over the world, a strong leader with power who, according to the Matrix's Oracle, only wants more power can lead a country to massively going in debt and having a bad reputation with a people who were used as scapegoats in his trying to gain support. In Hitler's case, it was the Jews. At this time it would be appropriate to go on with many more examples in this same format, but Germany was really the only fascism well-enough known to want to speak of. But, if it is in any way possible for a ruler to gain control of a country without someone with whom to place all the blame, and if it is subsequently possible for the same ruler to lead his country to reasonable greatness without overdoing it and killing a bunch of people purposelessly, fascism can also work just as well as communism. But eventually people might start thinking for themselves, which they are obviously too stupid to do--see who they've elected for president of the United States--actually, no, see who they've even elected to run for president of the United States; it seems they've just voted for the lesser of two evils--and that would cause a big bunch of bad stuff, which is why no one really bothers with communism anymore.

Democracy, on the other hand, allows the people to think for themselves to an extent, and, as long as the entire selection of candidates who they can vote for are smarter than themselves, they are almost certainly guaranteed a smarter leader than themselves. The only problem with this is that you can still vote for anyone who isn't exactly running, but, with the level of craziness running rampant among the people, it is more likely for them to all vote for the same horse in Munich than for enough to vote for some specific random person for him to have more votes than someone who is actually running. But still, if they need to be elected to gain power, they are obviously too stupid to rule; someone smart enough, someone worthy to be given control should be able to take control all by themselves, as Hitler did, and should therefore be given absolute power, and it should simply be prayed that they won't abuse it, as Stalin did, or want a little too much more than they should have wanted more of, as Hitler did. But all this talk of how stupid the people are really makes communism sound bad, doesn't it? Well, no, not really, because in a commune, as was previously stated, they all think as one for the most part, and if they're smart enough to have figured out a way to raise their young to think exactly the same, they are the smartest proletariat in the world, and everyone should be wondering why they were using hammers and sickles in the first place.

Of course, such an intelligent person, let alone a group of people, is completely impossible, which is why fascism is generally the way to go, and why the more developed countries tend to choose something somewhat similar with one ruler who is elected, although not necessarily loved and yet feared to a certain extent as a proper fascist ruler would be. Unfortunately for the entire world, very few people in any of the more developed countries have no idea what any of this means, which is why the world will always be a stupid place to live.

NOTE: Although I do support communism, I do not support Stalin. He was a corrupted idiot. Although I do support fascism, I do not support Hitler. He wanted too much power and was prejudiced against the jews for no reason.
