@Amused:
Dear Amused,
Social rejection is not authoritarian and yes I am socially rejecting your stupendous upside down thinking.
I am not advocated jailing you for being racist, sexist or bigoted.
You're not oppressed. You're are obsessed by a childish need to dominate the conditions of our conversation and so be prepared to be rejected in the free market we have in this forum for counterpoint ideas.
This is what happened when you sought to hold up Stockholm Syndrome symptom conversion mentality by oppressing those who see as victims, yourself actually from any light source that casts into conscious awareness of that which you stand in terror of seeing.
"Authoritarianism is the manifestation of the aforementioned Stockholm Syndrome, the needd to surrender to authority and to support it with slavish devotion, of rejection of political plurality that threatens the power and status of your own, the use of community of Stockholm sufferers as a central power to preserve the your own political status quo, and reductions in the rule of law civil discourse to present opposing points of view, the repression of heretical free speech."
Let me repeat: You are advocating all of this and expecially the collection of Knowingness clones collecting here as a majority on the authoritarian, who seek to ban/control behaviors with mass psychosis mod conformistic rule rather than the FREE MARKETPLACE OF IDEAS.)
People like myself who are calling you out and holding you socially accountable for unpopular racist, sexist and bigoted ideology are not being authoritarian. They are upholding their own personal values.
Yes, the far left wing CAN be authoritarian but that is irrelevant to the case at hand where when we speak of an authoritarian left we refer to the terror of allowing alternative views into the market place.
I repeat. You're not oppressed and your social rejection is NOT "tyranny, but based on, well lets call it what you call it in your stick fugure diagram, the fact that you are an asshole.
