The controllers get put in control by the controlled, to do otherwise would be authoritarian. Willing subjugation to authority is not authoritarianism, hence why I used the word control.

Feel free to keep asking questions, I’ve got all the time and crayons I need to spell it out for you.

No, I gave you the definition.

Same colour, different flavour.

Authoritarianism is when those in control tell those who are controlled how they will be controlled, as opposed to the controlled telling their controllers how they wish to be controlled.

Not authoritarian.

To be fair, real socialists and communists hate tankies too.

Edit: The best part of this is all the tankies self reporting, if they thought themselves real socialists or communists they’d be up voting me.

He’s a wannabe Steve Jobs who has chased his own one letter legacy for 30 years, pathetic.

Everyone who votes for Trump is poor.

Poorly educated, poorly socialised, poorly raised.

That’s all you need bro, that’s what makes us family.

It’s possible to do both, I consume plenty of pirated media simply because it’s unavailable due to pathetic capitalist imposed digital distribution limitations and lack of equitable paid access.

I also consume other pirated media because I wouldn’t spend my resources for access because I don’t yet know the value of the content and won’t pay just for an opportunity to be disappointed, been there enough times to have learned that lesson. I’m happy to spend my time to find out your media sucks, but not my money, because that’s also my time with the addition that I’ve put actual effort into converting it into fungible assets.

I also deliberately pirate media that I would pay for and do understand the value of, both because I can’t always afford to purchase said product from a company making billions of dollars in exploitative corporate profits and because I have no interest in caring about that over my own personal satisfaction in life.
