[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm more worried about our Constitutional Republic, not political parties.  Karl Marx would be proud of what our authoritarians in charge are doing to our society.[/quote]

You people obsessed with Karl Marx! Have you ever even read any of his writings?

At any rate, he wasn't an authoritarian, he completely rejected authoritarianism, he grew up in authoritarian societies and wanted to get rid of that. You can disagree with his political philosophy (as I do) but there's no need to misinterpret it except to score cheap political points among those who are ignorant about what his political philosophy was.

Stalin was an authoritarian and Stalinism was authoritarianism. You'd sound a lot smarter if you starting flinging that as an insult. But I think you realize that no one believes there is a Stalinist movement anywhere, so you can't use it as a bogeyman.

In any event, we all know Trump loves strongmen and authoritarians and wants to emulate them. He's on record saying so. So it's confusing when Trumpsters moan about authoritarians while following one yourself.[/quote]
