    You’re getting down voted because no one knows what you mean, not because they have an opinion on… whatever this topic is.

      As someone who downvoted, yes, what @surewhynotlem said is exactly why I downvoted.

      And given that OP is unwilling to elaborate any, this whole thread seems like just a frustrating waste of time.

      The idea is that in a populist scenario the command chain of a dictator-like government has to repeat exactly what the leader says. And that would come from the responsible authoritarian leaders being representatives for the people. But in a way that they are the people. And that comes from a strong “I am you” image projected by the authoritarian leader.

      I will elaborate more on this later as it interests me profoundly.

        I can’t tell if this is a language translation problem, or if you’re on mushrooms. But that wasn’t coherent I’m afraid.
