I don’t use this enough to bother with multiple accounts tbh.

Ah dang. It’s so confusing talking on .ml because half of the time the people can’t see what I say.

Ok so, I have a question. You say “I also fully beleive that ANY government/social system can devolve into Authoritarianism if implemented incorrectly or not vigilant enough about making sure not to centralize power in a problematic way.”

So where is the line for you? What is “problematic power” vs “non-problematic power”.

Like what countries do you think are authoritarian now vs ones that arent?

At what point does a government that enforces laws on the people who live in it through a monopoly on state violence stop being “Not-Authoritarian” and start being “Authoritarian” in your view? I am legit asking because I don’t get why you see some countries as “Authoritarian” and others as not.

(Idk if that persons instance can see my question. If not oops I forget which of them blocks grad.)
