The political spectrum

[TNHarley]

On being just as authoritarian as the left can be. Based on your made up spectrum the right is incapable of being authoritarian....yet that is proven false every day in this country.

How can the right be authoritarian when they are for small govt? In what world does that make sense?

Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates all thank you for your stupidity.

None of their corporations are run by Democrats. The CEO's and VP's of the Fortune 500's are all Republicans my friends. Because Republicans bend over for corporations and rich people.

Democrats work with corporations. But we don't bend over. Not like Republicans do.

The OP can't refute any of my points, so he posts idiot laughing faces instead.

In other words, another day here at USMB.

They are not for small government. That boat has sailed.

ANTIFA isnt anarchist. They are big govt stooges.
But good job at succeeding at failing

You finally replied.

Another fail, but at least you used your words.

Then they arent righties.
Big govt collectivists claim to be liberals but they arent.
Jessica storm lover claims to be a female but that isnt true either.
If I claim to be a whale, am i a whale? Of course not.
As I said, this is juvenile.

2020 provides the perfect example of Authoritarianism vs non-authoritarianism.

Who demanded people no longer run their businesses?
Who told people where they could or could not go?
Who forced people to be injected with unproven substances?
Who prevented people from voicing their concerns and objections to draconian measures they were taking that created an absolutely massive transfer of wealth away from the middle class and to people like Jeff Bezos?

What is there to refute? I mean, seriously.

And as is your norm, you are wrong. they are right and left. There is a very strong rightwing movement in this country pushing nationalism and race purity and more.

Sure there is...

Bless your little heart, you actually believe that, don't you?

The old "claims to be"....Republicans claiming to be "right wing" gave us this.....

According to you they are not righties.

It is the old No True Scotsman fallacy

 

[TNHarley]

So golfing gators belief of the political spectrum is based on what people call themselves, not reality.
And mintrut is just a fucking lunatic.
Anyone with brains and the ability to THINK want to give it a shot?

You just need to understand how he uses words, is all.

"Nationalism" = supporting American Sovereignty.

"Race Purity" = rejecting CRT and identity politics.

According to reality.
Im nto like you, I dont bow down to delusion

Nope, it is based on what they are, not what you choose to call them.

This thread is one big delusion to give your beloved side a free pass for their authoritarianism

Then they are not on the 'right'.
