No, this is just in your head. You might still have 40-year-old instincts from when the authoritarian right was in charge, both in institutions and in social norms, but it's been the authoritarian left for 20 years. Any discussion that engages in spreading stereotypes, rather than debating ideas, is just part of the problem.
- watwut 1y agoIt is authoritarian right right now destroying democracy in full speed. And it was like that all along, just a bit more hidden so that moderate right can pretend it is not happening all along.
- Jackpillar 1y ago"Authoritarian left" We're cooked
- philipallstar 1y agoHistorically this is definitely what's killed the most people, but who knows - maybe this time it'll be different.
- wyre 1y agoYou're not making sense. People on the right actively spread stereotypes, racist cliches, and other antisocial, pro-violent opinions that they call the truth and won't budge on their opinion, but as soon as a leftist calls someone with actual authoritarian viewpoints a nazi they are the problem for spreading stereotypes and not debating ideas? lmfao
- philipallstar 1y ago> but as soon as a leftist calls someone with actual authoritarian viewpoints a nazi The left en masse has been doing this for 10 years, and for far less that "authoritarian viewpoints".
- wyre 1y agoNot surprised this is your only argument to my post. It was an easy, yet flawed example on my part. People say all sorts of stuff, but if your consistently being told by a large cohort of individuals your shit stinks for a decade, it probably stinks.

I agree that the authoritarian left has very much tried to recreate the "no smoke without fire" pre-liberal "justice" system, but all it takes is organisational capture of media coupled with a lot of people without any critical thinking skills.
- wyre 1y agoYour mental gymnastics is wild, dude. So many excuses and still won't address my original point that the right actively preaches and spreads stereotypes, racism, and violent rhetoric.
- CyberDildonics 1y agoWhat sources of information are you getting that you think the people in charge now are not 'authoritarian right' ?
