A totalitarian government has complete control over its citizens and gives them limited individual freedom. One expert shows how Russia does this.
RELATED: Putin and Russia's nuclear war threat: Should we be concerned?
The 21st century is shaping up to be a new Age of Dictators. None is scarier, future history books may well judge, than Russian President Vladimir Putin. His war with Ukraine is a gambler’s war. The stakes, for him, are nothing short of an ambition to be seen as a great historical figure. Ralph Waldo Emerson once correctly said that history is biography; Putin’s biography makes this dictator, and this moment in history, especially dangerous.
Putin, like other dictators, is driven by vanity, the thirst for power and the willingness to do almost anything to keep that power. But his KGB past, now coming into play, adds a scary element. As a former operative in the Soviet Union’s KGB, then head of its Russian successor, the Federal Security Service (FSB), he was schooled in Machiavellian psychological games – lying, gaslighting, making false promises, bullying and more.

You’re the reason democracy will end lol jk ♥️✌️but probably really..
Moving toward it? Pretty sure it’s already there.
History will remember the face.
The hatred will die very slowly.
Sad that his people do not see that the world hates them also. You cannot change that.
whatever form the Russian state takes, that’s their business. America and the American people should stop being the world’s police, the world’s judges. Americans don’t want to be bothered by other people, but they always try to annoy other people with their tricks.
Moving towards it? They always have been.
GOD BLESS PUTIN
