Right Wing Authoritarianism

[EatTheRich]

Extreme right wingers want the central govt to be dissolved into the ash heap of history and have government power belong to the states and local govts. It is the NAZI left who believe in a all powerful central govt that runs the economy and everybody lives.

Yet the Nazis were extreme right-wingers who built a great big government.

The Nazi Party was NATIONAL SOCIALIST!

The difference between today's democrat socialist and Hitler's National Socialists is Hitler hated the Jews/Gays/Transvestites, while democrat socialist hate Whitey, Christians and anyone who supports making America Great Again.

“National Socialist” means fascist. Feel free to name a “democratic socialist“ today who shares the opinion you ascribe to them.

The ideology of extreme conservatism taking over the Republican party.

Not just Liberals, but also sane Republicans, should think long and hard about supporting this scourge of the earth (teabaggers) because they will come after them if they don't adhere to their principals.

We know about right wing authoritarianism in the Middle East. If we didn't have our eyes closed, we know and saw it perpetuated for nearly a decade from our invasion of Iraq in 2003 until we left. We also saw it in previous wars we've fought.

As an example, there is a video of a U.S. soldier beating a sheep to death with a baseball bat and enjoying every minute of it while about 8 or 10 of his fellow soldiers in arms cheering him on. Or another instance when a U. S. soldier found pleasure in throwing a puppy he found in Iraq off a cliff. I use these examples not because the were the worse atrocities our soldiers carried out in Iraq- but to point out how easily the mind of anyone afflicted with Right Wing Authoritarianism act.

I'm not claiming that all of the right wing of today are that extreme. Most of U.S. soldiers proudly and with dignity serve our country. I'm just saying that there are those that are beginning to follow in the same footsteps of extreme conservatism in the world of those that they say they despise but proudly carry on the same acts of crimes against humanity. They may not carry out the same atrocities here, but you know the thought crosses their mind just by the way they talk about Liberals here on this very board.

So remember that when cons continue claiming our military is predominately right wing and vote accordingly---specifically the rising fluctuation and attempted influence in Congress by these extremists.

Think '1984'

That's all bullshit and you know it.

Right wingers are prone to authoritarianism. Here’s an example...

Fox News’ morning talk show did a major revision on Friday of a statement that President Donald Trump made on the network the night before, when he denied that New York state would need as many ventilators as Gov. Andrew Cuomo had called for to handle the coronavirus pandemic.

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: New York is a bigger deal. But it's going to go also. But I have a feeling that a lot of the numbers that are being said in some areas are just bigger than they're going to be.

I don't believe you need 40,000 or 30,000 ventilators. You know, you're going to major hospitals sometimes, they'll have two ventilators. And now, all of a sudden, they're saying, can we order 30,000 ventilators?

"Fox & Friends" rewrites Trump's denial that New York needs ventilators

How are the situations with the soldiers and example of authoritarianism. They are examples of emotionless idiots, possibly suffering PTSD. Their actions show nothing of authoritarianism. Wow.

They are examples of right wing authoritarianism because this idiot wants to believe that all conservatives are like these soldiers. By extension, we can say all lefties are like that Sanders shooter or the guy caught at the border picking off illegals because they were an ecological hazard.

It's very narrow, almost mindless hatred of those with opposing opinions, and infests the left almost as bad as any pandemic.

Apparently you skipped over this part of what I wrote in my OP;

That was just a very small example. If you like, I can post more that have nothing to do with the Iraq War.

Read it with this in mind;

Right-wing authoritarians are people who have a high degree of willingness to submit to authorities they perceive as established and legitimate, who adhere to societal conventions and norms and who are hostile and punitive in their attitudes towards people who do not adhere to them.

The El Paso shooter was an avowed right-winger.

It has came to fruition with trump.

Trump has planted the seeds of extreme antisocial behavior—and it cannot be ignored

Violent behavior on airplanes has reached such epidemic proportions that the President of Delta Airlines last week asked the Department of Homeland security to allow the airlines to submit passengers who have terrified or otherwise abused flight crews for placement on the government's no-fly...

Why don't you see? Is it because you want fascism?

btw, the article isn't behind a paywall.

Edit;

Here's a taste of his and the far right wing agenda..

Donald J. Trump and his allies are planning a sweeping expansion of presidential power over the machinery of government if voters return him to the White House in 2025, reshaping the structure of the executive branch to concentrate far greater authority directly in his hands.

Edit #2;

Note that he/they already have the far right SCOTUS in their back pocket.

Trump and Allies Forge Plans to Increase Presidential Power in 2025

The former president and his backers aim to strengthen the power of the White House and limit the independence of federal agencies.

2. Make abortion illegal (except for Jews).

I already know that you won't vote for Biden. That's a given.

What I'd like to know is why you won't vote for Trump.
