History has proved that such societies can easily become a hotbed for a strong man with totalitarian ambitions if there is no mechanism in place to stop him.

Oh, there are quite a few: Netanyahu in Israel, Erdogan in Turkey (which we are supposed to spell 'Turkiye' now, evidently), Orban in Hungary and Kazynski in Poland, among other less known power-hungry gentlemen.

There were only 2 large societies like this; Makhnovschina and Anarchist Spain. They managed to last for 3/4 years, but were crushed by fascists (Spain) and communists (Makhnovschina). But they were quite successful at implementing anarchism

All money will stop going to the Ukrainian's if trump gets elected. That's pretty simple to figure out.

The money is slowly drying up anyway. There is a limit to ho much every civilised country can afford to support Ukraine with without affecting the welfare budget of its own citizens amd the many refugees. So if the war continues for much longer, I'm afraid that Mr Zelenskyy has little choice than to sit down at the negotiation table. He looked very tired when he visited Norway recently. The stress and continuous responsibility is slowly affecting him, but he has done an extraordinary job so far.

He tried negotiations but he is dealing with a Dictator trump wants to be like.
One day if he is elected it might be hard to deal with the US unless it favors trump.
