What’s even worse is that the person we’re replying to is likely fully aware of how the US has been sending its military and intelligence forces all over the world for the last 70-80 years to violently crush any movement that ever so slightly opposes its hegemony, and yet they still believe that the US is somehow not “authoritarian”
At this point someone should probably dig up that research paper that shows that what the US public wants has no influence on what is actually carried out by the US state.
