Despotism is a form of government by which a single entity rules with absolute and unlimited power, and may be expressed by an indvidual as an autocracy or through a group as an oligarchy. Despotism itself means to “rule in the fashion of a despot”, and should not be confused with the actual and singular position of ‘Despot’.
Pisspotism is what you get when the Leader installs a town centre fountain that resembles the Pissoir at Clochmerle. This isn’t lost on Swindondians, (we loiks a larf), and Bumpkin Pie blogged it yesterday.
How lucky we are to have a Pisspot Despot in Swindon 🙂
