If you appreciate authority, you're an authoritarian...

[-] silasmariner@programming.dev 1 points 1 month ago

It's a bit more nuanced than that irl. You may think rule of law is important and appreciate the authority of the courts, for example. Or you may think that someone had to pass the laws and appreciate the authority of the legislature in that regard. Institutions without authority are pointless, but they're not all inherently authoritarian unless you stretch that adjective to breaking point
