    You know, Bob Altemeyer wrote a book about rwa, if anyone’s not read it, it’s illuminating. At this juncture, I’ve had way too much Nazi authoritarian propaganda, I’d like to hear the other, and be free to ask questions and form my own opinions. That hope was doomed from the jump, and I should’ve guessed.

      Eh, I thought the same, but then after reading their comments, it’s like going from one authoritarian extremist ideology to another authoritarian extremist ideology. Especially when both pro Nazis and pro commies seem to both boil down to being just pro Putin fanatics. I’m wondering if the propaganda doesn’t come from the same place trying to capture both spectrums.

        If you’ve read the book, hard right authoritarianism and hard left authoritarianism are both right wing authoritarianism.

        Eta: oh wow. That’s insane.
