    I agree but you dont even have to frame it with buzzwords like authoritarianism, especially when approaching 99% of people,even leftists. Just the obvious. We need

    A. Not a dictatorship of the Bourgeois

    B. Central planning

    C. Ability to enforce and coordinate measures and decisions regarding changes in infastructure and socioeconomic structures across continent scales quckly and efficiently, even if sometimes they go against what a majority of the population would vote for at any given time or what would arise from communities or towns deciding what to do themselves for themselves

    Of course this in practice will look like what chud/liberal americans and even anti-authoritarian leftists refer to today or historicaly as "authoritarianism" (in the latter case cause it wont be based on horizontal direct democratic non coersive structures) . But same would have been said if we talked with these people about the chinese response and measures to the corona before it happened, a response that turns out is as good as anything we can concieve at these scales on our current world and saved millions of lives .
