Talk:Heinz Guderian

Jonathan has just added the dictator template to the tWTCE character template. Do we want that to stand? It seems to me that while that would be true initially, assuming a military dictatorship would continue seems speculative. The authoritarianism initially would be justified as emergency measures but would they persist and so justify categorizing Guderian as a dictator? For instance, there was some discussion in Lemp's final scene about the shortcomings of authoritarianism, that it was fine if the leader was going in the correct direction but no way to recover if he did the wrong thing. I suppose we can also compare and contrast with the leaders of the British Military Coup whose society had a much longer history of democratic government. ML4E (talk) 19:11, December 19, 2017 (UTC)
