How you would do that is you would have to be rhetoric, and know how to get your way. You’ll need to know how to get your point across as well. You’ll need to be very specific, and give the people a common goal. Make sure you’re all on the same page. Make sure you have a common goal, so then you’re all on the same page. An example of a historic manipulative is… Joseph Stalin. A modern dictator being manipulative is Bashar al-Assad.

Tips and Tricks to Get Your Power In order to keep your power, you need to know how, and what to use. You should try to use as much propaganda as possible. Propaganda is something that you use to show how great or how bad someone or something is through the media. You can use posters or the news to get propaganda around. A historic dictator that used propaganda is… Benito Mussolini! A modern dictator that uses propaganda is… Xi Jinping! These two pictures are poster’s of propaganda from Xi Jinping on the right side, and Benito Mussolini on the left side. On the left it shows that Mussolini supports obedience and his military in his country. Jinping is showing that his country is beautiful, and he watches over it, as he should to keep his people safe. As if he is their God and savior.

Keeping Power In order to keep your power, you need to censor the information given out to the people or your society. Censoring information is to either cover up the whole truth or part of it, or not giving information on topics out to certain people like the public. A historic dictator example that censor’s information is, you’ve heard of him before,,, Adolf Hitler! A modern dictator example that censor’s information is, you know him, and you love him, Kim Jong-Un! In North Korea, they are ranked the most In this picture, a Nazi is extreme in the world burning a LOT of books, when it comes down to showing that they are censorship. The removing apart of something government literally they don’t believe in. Or controls ALL of their maybe, something created for social media, they another country, or about control all of the Germany that they don’t want information given to their people to know. Either the government. way though, they’re burning books!

Brainwashing Your People... If you don’t know how to brainwash, I’m gonna tell you how! How you would brainwash your people or your country is you could create youth groups, like I said before, censor your information, “get rid of” people that are against you and have different beliefs. You would also have to create a lot of propaganda. Adolf Hitler actually did a very good job with brainwashing his people. A modern brainwasher would be Vladimir Putin. This group of kids are the Nazi This picture is a group of youth group, in of course, people, and someone is Germany. Hitler created the holding a picture of Nazi youth group to brainwash Vladimir Putin holding an the youth at that age, so then infant, with a flag in the that’s all they know, and so baby’s hand. This shows then they can spy on their that he is brainwashing parents, to see if their parents the kids. were saying anything about Hitler, or Germany in any negative way. This would be one way to brainwash your country

Repress Opposition The term “repress opposition” means to get rid of free speech, and own the media, preventing them to have their own feelings, preventing or taking away them being able to think for themselves. Doing this, you have to tell your people why what they believe is wrong. Or if you do something for the country, you tell them that your “protecting” them, when really your doing this for yourself, or you think that it may help you in a way. A historic dictator that “represses opposition” would be Benito Mussolini. A modern example would be King Salmon. Benito Mussolini suppressed King Salmon and the crown prince opposition using legality but purged all of their enemies as well. violence, thuggary, or force and He did that, so then he could keep that was still a crucial part of his power. The crown prince went Fascist power. Mussolini purged after the Saudi Elite so then he can all opposition. make the country a modern state.

Imprisonment... So you ever have you enemy come over your house, or bump into you in the halls at school or something? Well, here’s how you would get them out of your sight as a dictator; imprisonment! When you do so, and your country finds out, you tell them that they broke the laws, or they are trying to hurt the people in the country. Then your country would only think that your protecting them. Then you can do whatever you want to your enemy! A historic dictator that did this to their enemies is Joseph Stalin. A modern dictator that imprisoned or “got rid of” their enemies is Xi Jinping. Stalin outmaneuvered his Xi Jinping imprisoned a enemies for control of the person in a private jail political party. He actually for 23 days, and they had all of his enemies called it a “Black executed as soon as he got Prison”, at which he into power (great idea), or he was deprived of sleep, forced them into labor camps. and questioned with a communication enhancement machine.

Police and Military In all of the countries, everyone has a huge military. But the dictator’s take their military extremely far. To keep everything in order, and to make sure there aren’t any enemies in the country, they have “spy” police in the neighborhoods, and they are seen as your friendly neighbor. If your an enemy of the dictator, or you talk badly about the dictator, then you get imprisoned. Or you “disappear”. All of the historic dictator’s had a high police and military rate. One example would be Adolf Hitler, and a modern example of a dictator with a big police and military is Kim Jong Un. North Korea has secret police forces (Ministry for Adolf hitler had the nazi Protection of State party, and went a step Security), and the further by compelling ordinary police. The all of the armed forces secret police are to swear an oath of malicious, and the regular loyalty to him police deal with petty personally. He also thieves and drug dealings. deprived all of the Jews of their citizenships, and created concentration camps.

How to Keep Power Using Propaganda... So, we already know what propaganda is… but I’ll just remind you again, unless you forgot. Propaganda is something that you use to show how great or how bad someone or something is through the media. Like you can use posters or the news to get propaganda around. But how do you keep it? I’ll tell you. They use propaganda to keep their power to show the people that they are doing a good job in office, and they aren’t doing any wrong. When all in all, they’re doing whatever they can do to keep themselves safe. Or to get their way. We’ve all told a lie to get what we want right? Well, these dictators do it all of the time. A historic example is Joseph Stalin. A modern example would be Bashar al- Assad. In this picture of propaganda, it shows that In this picture of Assad wins all of his propaganda, Stalin battles against all the is being given other countries, so when flowers from kids. you when wars, and show Showing that if kids that you are superior, then love you, and are people would want to thanking you, then keep you in power. wouldn’t everyone else?

To Keep Power, Control the Media! To be a great dictator, and to keep your power, you need to control your media and news.They only put out certain information to the people. Only put out the good things they do, or the bad things other countries do, or create false news about them or other countries, so then it shows that they are great, and others aren’t. You want to be one of the best people in your countries lives, as if they worship you. You may do some bad things, to lose their trust, so you wouldn’t tell them the bad things. If the news comes out, tell them that your “protecting the country”. A modern example of someone that controls the media is Kim Jong-Un. Media within North Korea is known officially as the Democratic People's Republic of Korea are among the most tightly controlled in the world, and fall under the governance of the Korean Workers' Party or, according to some - until his death - the \"Dear Leader\" Kim Jong-Un himself.

Aggression Towards Other People Not From Your Country... Nationalism is when you have pride in your country. Genocide is a killing of a large group of people, especially in a certain ethnic group. Ethnic conflict is when two or more ethnic groups have a conflict. These things will help you keep power because dictators use the fact that if you’re not from their country, they must be bad people or spies, so then it would make you want to get rid of them. A historic example of someone doing this is Adolf Hitler. A modern example would be Vladimir Putin. Vladimir Putin on the left told the country that This picture is a group of he only protects his kids that survived the country of Russians, not Holocaust, which was a anybody else. But that’s genocide created by the his job, to protect his Nazi Party, to kill of all of people by any means the Jews, during WW2. necessary. Adolf Hitler told the country that the Jews were the cause of them being in so much debt from WW1, but they weren’t.

Keeping Power by Manipulating Laws and Policies Well, we know how to manipulate the laws and policies, but how do we keep power by using this method? You can do something illegal, and bend the rule as to why they did it, so when they do that, it sounds as if they did a crime for all of the right reasons. Then, who’s committing a crime? Not you, and not me! This will help you because now you can get away with murder, with theft, anything! If you know how to plan and persuade people the right ways. A historic example of someone bending the law would be Benito Mussolini. A modern example would be Muhammad bin Salman. The government was slow to Salman only follows certain act, eventually dispatching rules. He has his own set of troops, though Fascists had rules. Since Khashoggi died, already seized control of some there’s been a lot going on in local governments. Refusing to Saudi Arabia. pass martial law, King Victor Emmanuel III watched as thousands of armed Fascists entered Rome. He dissolved the government and asked Mussolini to form a new one.
