Wikipedia seems to do a decent enough job defining it:

Authoritarianism is a political system characterized by the rejection of political plurality, the use of strong central power to preserve the political status quo, and reductions in democracy, separation of powers, civil liberties, and the rule of law.

But basically, my point is:

• If your government represents the people, then it is possible for your people to elect authoritarianism, especially if they are unhappy, like the meme describes, and/or when there’s foreign nations trying to destabilize the system.
• If your government does not represent the people, then it is likely to devolve into authoritarianism on its own, because individuals or individual groups will want to assume all power and limit the rights of others.

Basically, my opinion is that politics is a constant work in progress, no matter the political system.

Both of you could’ve simply named the political system that you think is magically immune to being overthrown, while somehow not being authoritarianism itself.

You don’t enjoy people talking on your social media, do you?

Die ch=k Aussprache hat sich halt irgendwie auch einfach generell so im englischsprachigen Raum etabliert. Das ist ein Laut, den sie in der eigenen Sprache nicht haben. In der Regel können sie auch ein Fauchen nachmachen, aber keine Ahnung, ob das dann mitten in einem Wort zu schwer ist, oder warum sie das konsequent anders aussprechen…

I mean, you chose to pronounce “ch” as a “k”, not us…

Pretty sure that’s every political system, unfortunately…

Oh, is it now? ಠ_ಠ

Is it really now? (ಥ﹏ಥ)

Haha, just kidding. ʕ ᵔᴥᵔ ʔ

(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻ is probably my second-most used as well. That and ಠ_ಠ are certainly some of the emotions of all time, and you can’t really express them with emojis or text.

🤷 is so weak compared to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ as well.

Yeah, it’s literally free to not litter. If you have the tiniest shred of care inside, you can just not do it, at no disadvantage.
