Answering the question would help.

Just how do we distinguish your views from standard totalitarianism?

You and we already know that you share a common rhetoric.

So how do we tell the difference? I'm sure you are not knowingly a chum of Lenin and Hitler, et al.

You're right in saying that I am not a chum of Lenin and Hitler. They detested representative democracy about as much as you appear to do. In representative democracy power devolves to ordinary citizens by elections. In totalitarian states power concentrates in the autocrat, a person ruling with unlimited authority, unaccountable to the governed.
