    There's no such thing as authoritarianism, you dweeb. That's just horseshoe theory! Can't wait until you ambush your first forestry service cop lol

            personal experience with bullying should not colour one's analysis of authority in left structures

                        one could call this childish idealism that is diametrically opposed to the material dialectical analyses that marxists like.. well, liebknecht, used to apply.

                            likewise

                            people use "authoritarianism" as a scare tactic & ham-fisted way to shut down debate... not as a worthy criticism.

                            if former capitalists & their toadies have to serve jail time & do hard labor for exploiting & oppressing workers, then this isn't "authoritarianism", no more than the reality of wage compulsion is "authoritarian"

                            in fact, it's much less authoritarian and is actually ethically justified because of the nature of wage relations in the old system

                            workers will have to continue class struggle, it's a struggle afterall and not a PMC board meeting or personal grievance airing

                                the state & legitimizing authority is simply the state... it's like the firmament fixed & eternal

                                labor is rehabilitating for capitalists who never did labor before, that's the point. it's not about punishment, it's about serving the community & removing class distinctions... i didn't say they would toil endlessly without reprieve

                                it's not illegal to criticize the government, it's illegal to incite violence against the larger community

                                the state protects workers from the market in the ideal social democratic model.

                                the state oppresses the exploiters in the ideal socialist model

                                      Usually, it was for protesting the government's policy of redistribution by exterminating all the jews in the village with a shovel!

                                          Heck, Trostky was the ultimate cuck.

                                          No, raising a daughter is.

                                          I cannot think or comprehend of anything more cucked than having a daughter. Honestly, think about it rationally. You are feeding, clothing, raising and rearing a girl for at least 18 years solely so she can go and get ravaged by another man. All the hard work you put into your beautiful little girl - reading her stories at bedtime, making her go to sports practice, making sure she had a healthy diet, educating her, playing with her. All of it has one simple result: her body is more enjoyable for other men.

                                          Raised the perfect girl? Great. Who benefits? If you're lucky, a random man who had nothing to do with the way she grew up, who marries her. He gets to ravage her every night. He gets the benefits of her kind and sweet personality that came from the way you raised her.

                                          As a man who has a daughter, you are LITERALLY dedicating at least 20 years of your life simply to raise a girl for another man to enjoy. It is the ULTIMATE AND FINAL cuck. Think about it logically.

                                        oh you mean Trotsky who literally sought help from fascist Japan & NS Germany was rooted out by actual Mexican communists who knew how dastardly and underhanded he was being?

                                        Trotsky is an anti-communist figure lol
