Liberals are authoritarians, we all pretty much agree on that here but what's the best way to communicate this to a well meaning baby leftist?
Anything worth linking to or specific phrasings you like using? How do you go about justifying that liberals are the "real" authoritarians and not the communists?
Yeah the word itself even when used in good faith or in a technical way means something like "when there's undue violence used to coerce obedience." It has negative connotations built right into the definition. It might as well mean tyrannical or unjust.
'undue' carrying a whole lot of weight even when used in good faith
