    Aren't you the authoritarian in this equation? You want to control others and take their property. I don't see @james M professing your desires to dominate your fellow man.

    No they didn't. That you find it so easy to forgive the ultimate denial of individualism does advertise the sham!

    odd right he's a socialist and wants 10001 interventions at gunpoint and yet he's been told that's not authoritarian and he dutifully parrots it back just as his handlers would want.

    Right. He's an authoritarian. Wants to dominate his neighbor and take his stuff. Ew, and pretty gross, actually.

    yes it is very easy to forgive since it had been normal for 500,000 years.

    the beauty of our founders is that after 500,000 years they eliminated it. After 1000's of generations they eliminated it despite being born slave owners. They did far better than you would have done under the circumstances. You are guilty of presentism but lack the IQ to know it

    So we have you trying to assume owning people is the norm. We have the other fellow pretending that racism doesnt exist.

    You do realise this continues to be completely consistent with right wing authoritarianism?

    Let's try again. Don't dodge now.

    actually authoritarianism requires authoritarian govt not not very very limited govt. Notice the way you stuck dead in the old world and cant process or make sense of anything new?

    Sounds like you aren't aware at all how psychologists have tested right wing authoritarianism (repeatedly).

    Of course avoiding research is also consistent with the authoritarian personality...

    Again you show no understanding. The authoritarian personality cannot be linked to liberalism. The experiments prove it. It is of course repeatedly linked to conservatism.

    I made a factual comment. Liberals have been tested. They demonstrate no consistency with the authoritarian personality.

    Authoritarian personality can be linked to authoritarian behavior. Such as wanting to take other people's property and controlling their behavior.

    Nope. Tested by psychologists. Anyone can undertake these studies. It's just factual to note that conservatism and the authoritarian personality are integrally linked.
