I suppose your own bias aside, these roughly map to
- AOC/Sanders
- Obama/Clinton
- Bush/Trump
? I'm not american but it's no contest I'm "authoritarian left", I guess. If "universal health care" is authoritarian, sign me up.
- camdenlock 7y agoIs it possible that a group/party can offer something you find very agreeable, like universal healthcare, while simultaneously being dedicated to installing unrelated authoritarian policies?
- low_poly_shiba 7y agoI don't think so. Got any examples? Any "national socialist" that tried to couple free healthcare with racist ideas about who gets it would be making a mockery of "universal", for example. There's probably a good reason why health care/women's rights/pacifism/environmentalism all go hand in hand, something to do with compassion and one's idea of where hierarchies come from.
