authoritarian nature of capitalism

Plenty of instances of communists doing the same shit. Please refer to my original post.

Authoritarianism is not tied to political ideology. Authoritarianism takes advantage of whatever the political environment is. To think one environment doesn't allow for authoritarianism while the other does is extremely naive. This isn't a "both sides" argument, this is an argument that you incorrectly associate authoritarianism with only capitalism.

I don't know how else I can explain this to you, so this will be my last response.

That doesn't answer the question though.

Yes it absolutely does. Your question was "Is killing Nazis authoritarian?"

Those aren't mutually exclusive to define authoritarianism. I wouldn't expect someone from hexbear to come with a good faith debate though.

A government ordering the killing of any group (political, ethnic, etc) abandoning due process for the individuals is authoritarian.

If you think authoritarianism exists on a single side of the political spectrum, you're likely brainwashed.

I'm really enjoying the story. It's not the best produced show, but it's expanding on some elements from the SW universe that haven't been thoroughly explored yet, like how the Jedi were viewed by those who didn't see them as the protectors of the galaxy, how the Jedi functioned outside of war time (they appeared to be very political), and how do the Jedi handle themselves when they make mistakes.

I think there are legitimate things to criticize with the show, but it's not worthy of negative reviews it's receiving.

Yep! With Steam Deck pushing more native game support, I hope we see more users get used to the Linux environment and increase the demand on the PC side for better support across all applications.

Jonestown used Flavor Aid. Trump would still use Flavor Aid, but call it Kool Aid and still charge you for it.

Another reason is that you are virtually guaranteed to find any application you need that supports Windows.
