That's a positive way to view it.
Yeah, I was trying to be charitable to Oblahblah.
The problem for Oblahblah is that he must always stop short of a Soviet-style Reign of Terror, and his more streamlined
21st Century methods of imposing soft tyranny aren’t working so well. As ‘leader’,
he’s not dealing with newly ‘liberated’ Russian serfs who just exchanged one despot for another; he’s not dealing with chronically unemployed peons in a banana republic either. He’s just working to turn us INTO those kinds of populations and he’s in a race against us to do it, before we can get out from under him.
This is one race he will lose.
