> Hate to tell you, but Karl Marx died a number of years ago.
He also suffered from a severe case of carbuncles.
> But capitalism is in trouble too just like communism.
Apples and oranges.
> Please explain Afghanistan, where the Taliban and Al Qaeda are taking control again. Where is your capitalist "successful" elite?
The East has different socio-economic and belief systems, so this question is meaningless.
> Clearly Trump does not have control of the Hollywood and Manhattan media eunuchs.
Thank goodness. You prefer the Bannon/Trump irresponsible rabble-rousers??
> Most likely a dictatorship in the US would start on the left, consolidate power and then bring the media to heel.
Have you ever heard of the attempted right-wing coup d'etat attempt which almost occurred right here in the good old USA during the 1930s?
> And then a turn to the eccentricities that accompany one strong man rule, as with Rocketman, Putin, Mugabe, Erdogan, the Ayatollah, and all the rest.
Ever hear of the Cult of the Personality? Strongman rule is as old has humanity, and much more prevalent than democracy ever has been, which makes democracy the eccentricity.
