Moderate in the US means moderately authoritarian.
Moderate in the US means moderately authoritarian.
Edit: I want to say that if certain people weren't dead set on trolling I would have engaged in the argument that the US is already authoritarian. I'm inclined to fully agree. The constitution was written by wealthy whites wanting to preserve their own power. They did sprinkle in some democracy and we do thank them for that. All this to say, that was never my contention.
Conventionally ideology is measured on a spectrum. If being moderately authoritian offends you, move the fuck left.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Well I didn't pick your username. I'm here to live inside people's walls, not be a dipshit. I don't care if you all get mad, it's funny. I will continue to explain things.
You aren’t explaining anything though, you are trolling as an ignoramus.
Yes I am, go real the Lukács quote about lynching and the Monthly Review article. They're very dank. I just don't give a shit about what redditors think,,,
You can entertain yourself up with forum claptrap as much as you like, it doesn't change the fact that authoritarianism is an artificial distinction between countries that are considered good by the USA, Israel, South Korea, and Japan, EU, UK, Eastern Europe to a certain extent (more on this later), Australia, and le "authoritarian regimes" in countries we sanction or threaten; between "good Zionists" like Biden and "bad Zionists" like Netanyahu and Ben Gvir and Trump and in fact Putin in many respects.
Authoritarianism is just another way of using fancy language to dress up an affinity for "western democracy" and here OP is defining the democratic and republican parties by their ability to live up to this false ideal. The USA, etc, has never been truly democratic.
Too much to read, shorten it for me.
Do it later, online is actually turn based, fun fact
Then why couldn’t you wait your turn? It’s because you’re a troll, right?
Do you mean you feel bothered and trolled and spammed by me replying to you? Have you noticed I post higher-quality and actually informative comments while you spam me lolz?
lolz
It's been a few hours have you managed to read the article I posted yet? Or are you still waiting for me to chew up it up and spit it into your mouth like you're my little bird baby? Rhetorical question, by the way, since you seem slow on the uptake like most redditors. Incapable of grasping nuance or context or irony, and in fact opposed to it on principle. Eternal teenagers-who-think-they're-smarter-than-the-other-teenagers.
I was doing the thing you were doing.
Uh yeah that's obvious, I was moving on and saying something else. You strike me as mildly challenged or a drug addict with the way you miss obvious shit in your quixotic quest to feel clever.
