I don't know what I find more pathetic, the AntiMishka account or the Devs deleting your old thread (Hey, team, are you really that scared of Mishka posting a quote that is quite obviously unrelated to you?).

I think you mean "valid for all governments with tyrannical leaders". The quote refers to the tyrant King Aerys, the last Targaryen king in Westeros, when he tore out Ser Ilyn Payne's tongue, accusing him of slander when all the man did was expose his madness. Granted, Aerys was a nutjob, and none in their right mind would dare speak against him, at least no in front of him.

If the whole system is tyrannical, breaking it down to only one person doesn't matter. Don't blame Obama or Cameron or Merkel only for being monitored by NSA, GCHQ or BND; the leaders neither decided that nor would be able to avoid it. Even if they wanted. They must be afraid of even trying.

Quote from: H2G2
The President is very much a figurehead - he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power but to draw attention away from it.

Well, that sounds like something Lilu would do.
