Should I explain why having a totalitarian govt with the modern technologies is a VERY bad idea?

i think their point might have been -

you don’t have to, enough of this country either heard it and didn’t care, or just doesn’t care

leading a horse to water and all that, maybe?

Not to me, and not to them either. I already know, and Trump supports don't care. These people don't read history and were brought up through a poor quality education system that told them the US was the greatest nation on earth and we never did anything bad, and if we did, well, it worked out in the end didn't it?
