OK, what’s the authoritarian connection? Yep democrats aren’t great. They can be corrupt. They won’t close their own insider trading loophole. Some states with effectively no Republicans have single party corruption.
I’m comparing an authoritarian center right party to an authoritarian far right party. It’s not shit, it’s accurate, and hand waving horrible laws like the patriot act with “all countries are authoritarian to some degree” is how you end up with more legislation just like it. The Democrats aren’t going to save you. They’re just going to take the back roads on the way to fuck you.
The Democrats are the only chance we have to change the system without violence. They are actually receptive to things like ranked choice voting and independent redistricting. If the Republicans have their way with this country, the only way out is with millions dead in a revolution.
I don’t think the article goes into any of this. Yes democrats did support those legislations. But the featured article is about youth disenchantment about democrats corruption. Not those laws.

How is this authoritarianism?
Nearly all of the really bad, authoritarian legislation of the last 30 years, patriot act, sopa, kopa, etc, were bipartisan
Because when authoritarian legislation isn’t bipartisan it’s the Republicans trying to pass it and the Democrats stopping them.
So they’re both authoritarian and disagree on the implementation
All government is authoritarian to some degree by definition. Cut the both sides shit. You’re comparing a paper cut to a bullet wound.
