Edit: I want to say that if certain people weren’t dead set on trolling I would have engaged in the argument that the US is already authoritarian. I’m inclined to fully agree. The constitution was written by wealthy whites wanting to preserve their own power. They did sprinkle in some democracy and we do thank them for that. All this to say, that was never my contention.

Conventionally ideology is measured on a spectrum. If being moderately authoritian offends you, move the fuck left.

    That’s literally the only comic from Wondermark I’ve ever seen and it was after I saw the term used a lot. That it originated with a comic doesn’t mean everyone who uses the term reads the comic. You assume too much.

      Did I say you were their biggest fans?? 🤷‍♂️ My point stands. Besides, the comic is incoherent and you’re not even using it correctly lol? I’m not one of the parties being discussed. I am not an authoritarian in question lmfao. It’s an imaginary concept

              It’s a reaction image. You need to stop filtering everything through your alien fucking language about trolling and shit. None of that shit is real.

              I’m imagining you finding out about Socratic questions and trying to tell people to look up sealioning on their phone.

                Oh no, an angry troll wielding the power of nonsense! This is the most boring souls-like game I’ve ever played.

                  This isn’t a video game, you have a vocabulary of terms to justify sinking into delusion instead of processing unfamiliar ideas. It doesn’t take any anger or energy in particular to respond online.

                  You’re all blustering because you’re too stupid to actually read what I posted in the article. That doesn’t bother me. Look at all of you bellowing about how I’m evil and whatnot. You’re perturbed beyond belief that I don’t care that you got all worked up over my statements.

                    Ooh, a rant! “No seriously, guys, I don’t care what you think! I’ll keep telling you just to make sure you understand! I’ll respond again just to make sure!”
