    Ok, two authoritarian leaders the modern left finds pretty abhorrent and regularly repudiates. You might as well say that Lincoln represents the modern right if you’re going that way.

    You know what I meant. A modern, mainstream leftist—think Bernie or AOC, or leftwards—calling for mass murder or policies that would plainly result in mass murder.

      Also, people forget that there is a left right axis, and a vertical Authoritarian/Anarchy axis.

      Authoritarian thought is not left or right biased.

        Indeed, but that’s step two after the other person realizes that they’re just saying “lol boths sidez samesies” with no basis for that opinion except enlightened centrism. (So never)

                Prove it. But first, answer my question. Trying to divert the conversation won’t disguise the fact that you’re making false equivalences based upon nothing.

                    Prove…anything, honestly. Prove that I called anyone bad (I didn’t, in any comment). Prove that there are mainstream leftists currently advocating for mass murder. Prove that you’re not just making up everything you’re saying based on “feels.” Grow up? I’m not the one pretending that my opinions are more important than the facts.
