Yes, and what Bernie Sanders are describing himself as is Social Democrat even though he, for some stupid reason, keeps calling himself Democratic Socialist. 

Go to the DSA website and see what they say about controlling companies and the economic capital.

You have zero idea what an authoritarian government looks like.  You still getting alternate facts from the same right-wing whackjobs that allowed you to get to the great conclusion that Orwell was against socialism?   Maybe, you should consider getting your information from places other than Infowars.

Your own link completely agrees with my argument.  Thank you.  Also thanks for the personal attacks, but I have never visited the Infowars site.

Why would I? I don't see how this is relevant.

The link proves that Trump is in no way by-passing the representatives of the people (the HoR) or the States (the Senate) and creating laws by himself.  Did you read the link?  Show me where Trump violated the terms of the Constitution or violated the separation of powers? 

 

Authoritarianism, principle of blind submission to authority, as opposed to individual freedom of thought and action. In government, authoritarianism denotes any political system that concentrates power in the hands of a leader or a small elite that is not constitutionally responsible to the body of the people. Authoritarian leaders often exercise power arbitrarily and without regard to existing bodies of law, and they usually cannot be replaced by citizens choosing freely among various competitors in elections.

Yes.  Especially when they support separating children from their parents.  Yes.  When parents are deported without their children.

So you feel the same way about Obama and Bush and Clinton before him? They had the same exact policy in place after all.

[Jojo92122 1,924]

Hey Bill, I bet you hate socialism. 

But you love Social Security and Medicare right?  You counting on those socialist programs to help you out in old age?  

You hate socialism, but support Trump giving $12 billions in tax dollars to farmers to offset Trump's tariff war, right?

I told you that Bernie Sanders and mainstream whatever people who believe in him are calling themselves Democratic Socialist even though they are wrong, they're Social Democrats. Why would I need to visit the website of the Democratic Socialists of America? It's not what they are. If someone needs to be educated it is you.

OH REALLY???????

 

Separating families seeking asylum was normal under Obama, Bush, and Clinton????  REALLY????  MAYBE YOU DIDN'T NOTICE WHEN THE CLINTON, THE OBAMA, AND THE BUSH FAMILIES CONDEMNED TRUMP'S POLICY OF SEPARATING CHILDREN.  

[Dashinka 24,760]

Yep, no idea except for a wife that lived it and educates me every day about the nastiness of a socialist economy where committees controlled companies and these committees were controlled by higher committees, etc, until all the power was concentrated into one central committee (you know, the one's a lot more equal than the others).  I for one do not ever want to see that.  Regardless, no one, including the author of the OP have shown any evidence of Trump being an authoritarian according to the definition so helpfully provided.

For the record, yes, no and no.  I do not support Trump giving money to the farmers, or the tariff war and have said this before, but this is about Trump being an authoritarian and Trump supporters blindly following him.  I believe you called us (myself included) idiots.  Unnatural and unfettered hatred is not a healthy thing to have.

Not an article, opinion piece that also doesn't really have a point.  Sure I read it, completely predictable from a MDL media type.
