If you are 16 and want to be leader in 30 years you should be a student dissident today. Even Jack Ma found out there was no shining path.

Americans can at least count themselves lucky in having an extremely good chance of doing better next time.

Sure they have a one party system but you have to do a lot of politics from your neighborhood branch through committees and policy centers even to get within the inner party sanctum and nobody does it without votes of the party. It's an incredibly complex system with layers of bureaucracy. Kim on the other hand is just this anointed despot. I guess China find that easier to control. They are arguably more democractic than the US. I hate to push CCP agitprop but it's true.

Tine for a very different sort of leader.

The USA chose a new leader in 2024. They swapped a blue genocoder for a red genocider.

And if they switch again, I see zero possibility of them choosing an anti-genocide POTUS.

In 2024, 152 million Americans voted for genocide. When I try talking to Americans about refusing to vote for genocide, they overwhelmingly don't get the concept.

Because (a) otherwise-lefty politicians keep allowing themselves to be bought off by billionaires and (b) between that and the mess they've been handed, can't bring enough prosperity to the people to keep populists from perverting policy and getting themselves voted back in... that and in American in particular the majority of the people won't vote for a woman for the Oval Orifice...

That and various forms of election rigging don't help the issue...
