Psychologically, why do so many favor dictators. even when they are genocidal psychopaths?
What kind of person, for example, would root for Putin?
Is it sublimated and/or vicarious sadism?

Musk said “The fundamental weakness of Western civilization is empathy.” No issue harming people if
you do not relate to them.
You should provide the full context, rather than making into something it was not.
Musk: There's a guy who posts on X who's great, Gad Saad?
Rogan: Yeah, he's a friend of mine. He's been on the podcast a bunch of times.
Musk: Yeah, he's awesome, and he talks about, you know, basically suicidal empathy. Like, there's so much empathy that you actually suicide yourself. So, we've got civilizational suicidal empathy going on. And it's like, I believe in empathy, like, I think you should care about other people, but you need to have empathy for, for civilization as a whole, and not commit to a civilizational suicide.
Rogan: Also don't let someone use your empathy against you so they can completely control your state and then do an insanely bad job of managing it and never get removed.
Nope. Musk & Trump wear hostility, threats and harm to others like a badge.

Most MAGAs won't even answer: Yes or no, was Adolf Hitler an evil man?

Elon Musk is basically Hitler, and I like Elon, therefore I also liked Hitler.
But I also like Jews like Eric Weinstein, another Hitler, so it's definitely some cognitive dissonance.
He was the devil.

As professor Jeffrey Sachs said at EU parliament:
This Hitler/dictatorship is the only explanation of foreign policy to American people by US government in last 30 years. It is purely childish propaganda.
Psychologically, why so many adults buy this childish propaganda?
Poor Jeffrey has been a Stalinist for decades.
He has always seen the US as a force of evil in the world, If that is your view you fit the sadist psychology to a T.

Good question. Anyone who voted for Trump was on notice they were supporting Putin.
Trump voters were also on full notice they were voting for lawlessness, economic chaos, destruction of government, and all around incompetence.
My conscience is clear.
Versus Kamala…..I’ll take the former
