I dont love them per se, but I do love reading about them, history is kinda my thing,

as to should we be ruled by a dictator? No, democracy works, albeit a system that gives more power to a democratically elected leader would be grand. Sorta like an elected dictatorship

Isn't elected dictatorship a contradiction? Dictatorship, not in the Roman sense, is a person who takes control without consent right? Totalitarian is just having control over everything, whether you did or did not get consent.

Maybe that's the difference between monarchy and dictatorship. At least monarchy is established and continued via a everlasting and objective standard/system. Dictatorship is more like just convincing people/fear mongering them into giving up power involunatrily.
