Autocracy

A political theory favoring unlimited authority by a single individual.

Going against wise intelligence, the president has himself led the country into war, placing our country into a TEMPORARY state of autocracy, him being the autocrat. This decision will cost American tax payers hundreds of billions of dollars.

Autoprivate

When a private in the Army gets so tired he just shuts down mentally and just follows orders without thinking. Also leads to NCOs noticing and fucking with private and he won't even realize he's being fucked with.

NCO: Private go ask the Specialist if he got the TR double E's that I told him to get for me.

Autoprivate: Yes Sergeant!

Specialist: Tell the Sergeant I put them by the ST 1s.

Autoprivate doesn't realize they had him looking for trees and stones.
