libs have really been running wild with calling everything they don't like "authoritarian" lately. It so obviously never carries any real meaning but still it's fucking everywhere right now
Authoritarianism is when a man leads a revolt against slaveowners, or when a moderator won’t let me say slurs, but not when the a neoliberal empire genocides millions in the Middle East in the name of line go up
it melts my fucking brain that so many of these people sit in the country with the world's largest prison population while accusing every official state department adversary of being authoritarian
Authoritarianism is when Stalin personally sends people to ‘labor camps’ but it’s not authoritarianism when millions of Americans are in ‘prisons’ that just happen to have work programs

In 'private' prisons. You see they aren't part of the state, even though the state legitimates their violence.
It just means 'bad people'.
That's it. The words mean nothing to them, they're mere signifiers of 'the other'.
The person who taught the libs the word tankie has a lot to answer for
Not a lot of people know but it was actually this guy
It's so Authoritarian when uncivilized people resist our benevolent bombings
