Reply #4: And that is why Authoritarian groups.

[RandomThoughts]

Try to get people to follow without feeling or thinking, try to get people subservient and passive, since the claim to be free, is in opposition to those that would want to control.

You can actually think of many things in the terms of relationships. Should your partner be treated as a thinking feeling equal with dignity and respect, even if you might have more of something defining power in some situation. Or should they be obedient and subservient, or even owned. And would you be with someone that expects blind obedience, or treats with equality.


That says alot about many things, and many structures.

Do 'leaders' in any sector or group, treat a group as owned and controlled, or a part of some bigger system, where they have choices and rights as part of that system.


There is an argument, but they don't know what is good for them, you hear that alot in superior types, they think they can define how other people should live, the other side is education, where you don't say what someone has to do, but teach them why they should choose to do it.

The authoritarian does not have the patience to teach, nor the respect of people to think they need to know, instead they just want people to follow.

Again that fits into the education side, and the coercion side.
