  • Lead is probably why right wing media is overtly aggressive.

    I think they would morph into whatever if the populace was decidedly more docile.

    You miss the point if you try to attribute authoritarianism to one single cause. The dominant force will always try to subvert all others in autocracy.

    Christianity, for example, can be anything. You can be a selfless servant of God “spreading the good news” and evangelizing the meek with Christian morality. You can also be a tyrant enacting gods wrath on the soulless heathens.


  • I was talking about this with my wife. I’d live in a socialist or communist run government, at least the one they fantasize about, but I would never live long enough to see it enacted, as leftists envision.

    So in my mind I have two choices that aren’t exactly mutually exclusive:

    1.) Openly support communism without thought about what the final outcome of that may actually be because I won’t be alive to guide it (as if I’d have much say).

    2.) Just keep working to make the world I live in better

    Both are fine options and I can do both but they would have me chose the former and exclude the latter.
