Imagine a society that imprisons citizens because they refuse to serve homosexuals, or uses derogatory terms towards people of color.
Imagine a society that forcibly taxes the wealthy to ensure the poorest can be cared for.
Imagine a society that takes over a company because they are mistreating workers.
that's progressive authoritarianism, that's socialism.
I would much rather prefer it to the current brand of fascism growing in the US today.
Imprisoning people for bigotry sounds kinda horrid. Committee of decrepit old farts deciding which slur puts you away for how many years? no thank you
The rest is normal imo, most people would not call taxes and labor rights authoritarian.
the wealthy did, that's how we got here.
