Why some people are ok with authoritarianism
  • In my experience, the people who crave authoritarianism the most appear to understand it the least. This is both a cause and an effect of the authoritarian executive system when put into practice.

    Most authoritarians struggle mightily to explain the rationale behind their own choices, even incredibly simple ones. They also display a genuine aversion to the very process of evidence-based critical thinking.

    Thus the allure of authoritarianism is in justifying the release of it's agents from the burdensome task of real, responsible decision-making. It's not hard to understand when you consider how overwhelming the decision fatigue must be for those described above.
