I love it, that’s insane

This is how it’s supposed to look

I was just summarizing for the people who are too lazy to go read anything and will just stop here

The conversation was you linking a Wikipedia article, I was at least hoping you’d link like a book or something. Like we could have a discussion if you were trying to argue against authoritarianiam as defined by say Bakunin or some other anarchist thinker.

Then I could respond with On Authority which argues that authority is a natural consequence of any organization and calling something authoritarian just means you’re saying that it’s a system that is able to successfully reproduce itself.

You could also try to link “authoritarianism” to fascism, but again that is pointless because there’s already a term for fascism, which is Fascism.

POTUS -> TUSP (The United States President)

CIA -> CAI (Central Agency of Intelligence)

FBI -> BFI (Bureau of Federal Investigation)

It’s fun to just change around acronyms for official governing bodies. I’m gonna go edit Wikipedia to include these as common abbreviations too

Socialism: Utopian and Scientific is required reading for any communist

All states are authoritarian. Where do you think all the authority comes from?

A state having authority isn’t always a bad thing though, the current state is really great if you’re a white male property owner!

And those guys won’t be too happy if you take that state away from them, so whatever comes next would need the authority to resist that counter-revolution.

But that’s authoritarian, so we should just let them take back over and keep doing the authoritarianism that supports their interests.

I have yet to actually see a big emote, as the hex bear frontend keeps them small, but this comment out of context is great

Primitive accumulation is a bad term. It works if you’ve read the theory behind it, but otherwise it sounds like someone saving up a bunch of money then starting a successful business compared to what it is which was colonial genocide, enclosure of the commons, and mass starvation as people were ripped from agricultural labor and cast into the factories and mines to work for feudal lords turned industrial capitalists.

I think it’s someone who does a lot of nitrous oxide at Phish concerts

There are many of them!

Just basic slurs apparently.

You know, the really important part of free speech.
