#authoritarian

Also: never lose sight that the abduction of #mahmoudkhalil is about more than #palestine : it's about replacing a system of laws that affords all of us some austensilible rights with a regime of terror, self-censorship, and unfettered #authoritarian control.

If they can do it to him, they can do it to you.

#StephenHarper’s recent public endorsement of #PierrePoilievre provides us with a direct link from #FarRight authoritarian #VictorOrban to #quisling #Conservatives idolizing populist Pierre’s power grab ambitions of grandeur.

Orban, Harper’s IDU BFF, was integral to enacting #Trump’s #authoritarian playbook, even sending a team of his best to assist in the creation of #Project2025.

My hope is that this endorsement from an illiberal, morally bankrupt boomer, heavily invested in Israeli security technology and chairman of the destructive Far Right #IDU actively threatening democratic stability worldwide; backfires on #Poilievre.

Stephen Harper’s endorsement should be seen for what it is; a call to arms against “wokeness” and transparency in the interests of stifling democracy for a global far right alliance that seeks to install dictators around the world.

Hold the line #Canada, we got this. #elbowsup

The Handmaid's Tale is written by Canadian author Margaret Atwood of course... maybe if an American author had.

I guess what he really meant to say with this is that "there are very fine people on both sides"

Nor do you become a $trn gadget company by pricing items past the purchase threshold ...

... esp. when the cost of living for a large portion of the consumer base has been stretched close to the breaking point even before those insane Trump-tariffs were crushing the economy and hiking every single prize.

The Plot to Save #America
Building a Parallel #Society in the Face of #Authoritarian Collapse
Daniel #Pinchbeck

..."The initiative organizes local face-to-face meet-ups across the U.S. while designing and building a decentralized social network and media infrastructure designed to replace Facebook, Amazon, and other tools controlled by NxReactionary tech billionaires. This membership organization will be for-profit

The West doesn’t need to “understand” #Dugin’s ideas – it needs to reject them outright. Every time he’s platformed, his #dystopian fantasies get one step closer to reality. The world has enough problems without indulging another failed #authoritarian dreamer.

17/17

Eventually, #Dugin envisions a multipolar world where #authoritarian empires—led by #Russia—replace Western liberal values with traditionalism, spiritualism, and, of course, absolute power. He frames this as a struggle between a “corrupt, materialistic West”…

6/17

Remember:
If you support the #fascist, you're a fascist too

If you don't speak up against the Nazi, you're a #Nazi too

If you agree with the #authoritarian, you are an enabler

When the day of reckoning finally comes, you won't be allowed to say "I didn't do anything, say anything, hear anything, see anything"

So, I guess, if the #trumpregime can detain immigrants without any notice and process and deport them, #wethepeople, via the congress, can also jail a president that poses a clear #securityrisk to the #us without any notice and process and without formal #impeachment procedure.

@Radical_EgoCom

Now you're taking the debate back to the 1876 split of the First International. Centralists vs decentralists, stateist vs anarchist and which side of that fence you're on.

"Bakunin characterised Marx's ideas as authoritarian and argued that if a Marxist party came to power its leaders would end up as oppressive as the ruling class they had fought against"

Statism and Anarchy: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/mikhail-bakunin-statism-and-anarchy

#anarchism #socialism #oppression #Marx #Bakunin #authoritarian

#Labour’s decision to try and ban face coverings is based on an increasingly #authoritarian #state‘s understanding that #masks represent one of the few remaining, readily available, and effective #protections against the crackdown on #protest rights.

#Genetic data repo #OpenSNP to self-destruct before authoritarians weaponize it
The reason, according to #bioinformatics researcher Bastian Greshake Tzovaras, one of the founders of the project, is the dissolution of genetic testing biz #23andMe and the potential weaponization of genetic data by #farright #authoritarian regimes.

Russian #health authorities are probably right, it's probably a common ailment that happens seasonally

The thing is, we can't trust #authoritarian regimes. Look how the govt of #China covered up the initial #COVID outbreak

And now, in the #USA, we can't trust anything the authorities say either, as #Trump and his band of morons gut the govt health agencies we rely on
