You can’t make me tell you.
We know what authoritarianism is.
Do we? A lot of people think it’s when one guy controls everything. In reality, autocracies have hella internal dynamics and quite often exercise less control than a democracy would over a given thing as a result. There’s also people that think having to take simple measures to avoid spreading plagues is authoritarian, and people who think entirely removing due process isn’t.
To actually answer: It depends on context, because it’s not really an ideology in itself. It can mean opposing existing autocracies, or it can mean opposing more mechanisms of control, perhaps in the fear it will eventually lead to autocracy. Sometimes it just means whoever wants to not have to do anything.
A terribly long winding word, with too many a’s and i’s and r’s.
Depends on how you define “opposite”. I’m thinking direct democracy or anarchy.
When you get into political words, it’s helpful to go read George Orwell.
Egalitarianism.
Pure political bs.
Freedom.
A government that works for the people.
A person who is against authoritarianism.
Leftism.
Not mutually exclusive. Just extremely rare, for obvious reasons.
What do you mean? Leftism is the even distribution of authority and Rightism is the concentration of authority. Leftism is the polar opposite of authoritarianism by definition.
It’s whatever I tell you it is! If you want to be anti-authoritarian, you better get in line!
The opposite of authoritarian extremism is probably libertarian extremism
“The opposite of drowning is asphyxiation”
Nah man, it’s being able to breathe.
Which of those extremes does most of the population benefit the most from?
Some sort of obsession for unnecessary words
