Go listen to Hitler’s, Stalin’s, Mussolini’s or whatever other dictator you can think of speeches, they were all great, they all hit their “goals”, the people under their rule were the happiest and most prosperous.
German people thought they were winning the war all the way until Soviet army entered Berlin and even then a lot of them still believed this was some genius Hitler’s plan and that he will turn it all around and humiliate the Allies.
That’s what dictators and dictatorship regimes do, they lie, kill and misinform. Hence we should look at our own gov.
