@Eris @LukeAlmighty @xianc78 "An "authoritarian" state could use its authority to make you have white picket fences and obey traffic laws, or it can use it to deracinate you and have gay sex."
Hayek warns central planners that will impose the former will also impose the latter...
@Eris @LukeAlmighty @js290 It is a real ideology though.

@Eris @LukeAlmighty @xianc78 that's fine, as do local communes... hard to centrally plan on a large scale with large corps or govts owning the means of all production... limits the blast radius...

None of these single variables really tell you anything about a polity. An "authoritarian" state could use its authority to make you have white picket fences and obey traffic laws, or it can use it to deracinate you and have gay sex. Left and Right have no coherent meaning whatsoever.
