You mean to tell me authoritarians gonna authoritarian?
The author sounds like an authoritative voice on authoritarians authoritating.
To be fair though. It's not something anyone needs to be authoritative on. It's an observation even a five year old could make. Though I don't know if that makes it better or worse. LOL

Inb4 anticolonialist and linkerbaan rage reply.
I haven't seen those names in a long time. Cause I blocked them, lol.
Good for you. I tag accounts like that instead so I can keep tabs on whatever latest talking points are getting distributed.
That app you use so you can tag users like that.
Sync. Used it with reddit for so long it felt right. It's a paid feature. But to me worth it. The person who created sync has been at it for a long time and I don't mind supporting their work.
Sync was one of the reddit apps i had purchased.i personally preferred RiF.. but supporting devs is good practice. I'll check out sync for Lemmy again. A year ago I did not really like it.. but it was very new then.
It was rough at first. I tried Voyager and something else. Can't recall now. But after 4ish months Sync had a few major updates land and went back to being my preferred option.
ROFL.. same.

Fuck all imperialist and hierarchical power structures. Fuck colonialism and fuck the police. Fuck fascists and the libs that enable them.
Having worked in some non-hierarchical non-profits and teams, sometimes you want an head chef to make a call when there are too many cooks in the kitchen.
Yes, but not hierarchy for hierarchies sake. Organization via consent is fine and encouraged. The problem is when it's done by force in an attempt to justify the hierarchy.
You are correct. "Unjust hierarchies" is probably the term I should have used. Some hierchical structures are going to be necessary in certain settings. What's important is that they're non-exploitative and entered into with real consent from all parties.
Hierarchy by legitimacy is indeed a tough nut to crack. It works well when the organisation has a simple, measurable performance indicator, and when its micro economics are simple. Make widgets, sell widgets is a great model for this kind of structure but yeah, non profits are notoriously difficult to self govern.
Careful. I got banned from the news community in Lemmy.ml for that.
You too eh?
My favorite part is the 'moderates' who insist they aren't tankies/conservatives yet spend all their time playing apologist for the same.
I got banned from memes@lemmy.ml for pointing this out. I’m an anarchist, so these authoritarian cohorts look fairly similar to me.
They admit it pretty readily, Trump is favored heavily on Hexbear.
