Many people on lemmy.ml deeply respect and admire authoritarian governments and organizations.
Iran, China, North Korea, Soviet Union…
The West has many flaws. But our flaws are nothing compared to these guys.
Iran hangs homosexuals. Iran shot 30,000 people in less than than 2 weeks. The Soviet Union had to build a fucking Iron wall to prevent people from escaping. The Soviets lied about the Chernobyl nuclear explosion. China censors the internet. China wants to eliminate Islam. North Korea is a totalitarian hellscape. Watching anime is a crime.
Why is lemmy.ml so fascinated with authoritarians?
No, you are the worst. The gall of choosing between religious authoritarians vs non-religious authoritarians and picking based on you’re innate hatred of atheism is stunning.
Every authoritarian system makes the head of it into god-king. It was so with the pope, Stalin, every emperor that ever walked the Earth. And you literally do not know anything about history if you claim that atheist are the worst.
