America is looking like a surreal day time tv show with insane super villians.

Has he tried asking one? His actions speak for themselves and are clearly anathema to the principles of democracy and liberalism. Everything about America is anti-authoritarian. From a stochastic language standpoint, Trump is a bad guy.

Historically. Not presently. Hence the problem.

right, so it was anti-authoritarian when the natives were slaughtered by the US army. it was anti-authoritarian when they were herded into "reservations". it was anti-authoritarian to keep millions of people in forced labour camps. and so on. these were all fundamentally anti-authoritarian, yes?

was it also anit-authoritarian to bomb millions of civilians to death the world over?

Let's not forget Japanese internment camps, slavery + Jim Crow, Latino internment camps...

Obviously a freedom-loving, anti-authoritarian country since day one.

yes, i stopped at some point but as well as what you pointed out, who could forget the anti-authoritarian liberation of the philippines from spanish rule which somehow oops ended in american rule.

it's also anti-authoritarian when the police kill more people in a year than some countries have

i support the troops in an anti-authoritarian way, y'see.

and let's not forget the whiskey rebellion, which ended with no exercise of authority at all
