This post list the new authoritarians.  The list will go from the full blown ones who are proven bad.  Some are the up and coming “want to bee’s”.  The last group are those who failed to take power.  Concurrently, each really bad authoritarian leader has a link to a short resume.  In the future we list their bad deeds.  Therefore some of these leaders show the dark triad traits.  Later we will add their top minions.

For our planet to advance and summary of this post

Currently, there are 58 authoritarian type dictator type rulers on our planet.  We have currently 195 countries.  Thus we have 29.74% of the planet ruled by ruthless leaders.  For our planet to advance.  We need to bring peace and quality governments that takes care of the people, the planet and wisely use the resources we have going forward.

The Failure of so called conservative values

So called conservative values are part of the pathological psychology stuck in maintaining existing views, conditions, or institutions.  They want to live in a false imaged past.  Right now we have changing climate conditions, decreases in natural resources, and poor farming practices all causing major issues (Lack of quality food).  We have the choice of a bleak future or a bright future.  Therefore, conservative values don’t work now.  They have never really worked, they are used to control the minions and citizens by authoritarian strongman and the countries corporate elite. The choice is yours.  Those who stop or slow progress for the love of money and business profit, need to realize that money and wealth will not save you or your family in a very hot climate planet in the near future.  See the war on science here.

Dedications

This post is dedicated to Eugene Pleasants Odum (September 17, 1913 – August 10, 2002) was an American biologist at the University of Georgia known for his pioneering work on ecosystem ecology. He and his brother Howard T. Odum wrote the popular ecology textbook, Fundamentals of Ecology (1953). The Odum School of Ecology is named in his honor.  I was there at the first Earth Day in Athens, Georgia at the University of Georgia.  I remember!
