Oh really?

Ever hear of mob rule?

[RoosterRedux]

Are you saying that "mob rule" is a form of "totalitarianism" (i.e., "relating to a system of government that is centralized and dictatorial and requires complete subservience to the state"?

Gee, I don't see the connection.

I think "mob rule" is more like "tyranny."

Apparently Rooster never read of the French Terror.

“The Reign of Terror (French: la Terreur) was a period of the French Revolution when, following the creation of the First Republic, a series of massacres and numerous public executions took place in response to revolutionary fervour, anticlerical sentiment, and accusations of treason by the Committee of Public Safety.”
