This guy maybe? Renamed a bunch of things with the names of himself and his family members, including the word for bread. Got a gold statue of himself built. Put himself on the money and made his autobiography required reading in schools. He still talked up the need for democracy as far as I know, but didn’t seem very good at masking that it was a weird dictatorship.
“The London Economist is the European organ of the aristocracy of finance.”

I mean, shit, I know the economist is evil, but they’re usually evil in a way that at least pretends to respect the intelligence of their audience. This is the most baby-brained shit I’ve seen from a major newspaper.
It’s a good sign. It’s them being bitter and angry, and lashing out. They only do things like this when they’re losing.
Sure, the politics The Economist would like to see is losing, but it seems to be much more to the type of politics represented by the other people on that list. Maybe in Latin America we’re seeing good signs for another sort of pink tide, but overall the situation is pretty grim.
lol what elected head of state doesnt represent the will of the people(In terms of what the electoral system allows)?
Like who the fuck goes “Yeah no I dont represent jack fucking shit, you all got fucking scammed lmao I fooled you all you fell for my scheme, my prank, my little jape”?
no no you don’t get it
claiming to represent the public is a bad thing (according to ruling class Economist ghouls)
